Hello lovelies, I hope you have all been well! After a little break from sharing on here, my creativity is waking up and wanting to come out and play again! I'm ready to be creative; take pictures, plan trips, host parties, make things, bake things, sew things...! I know I owe you all a (very much overdue) kitchen makeover reveal and I will get to that soon, but first let's catch up.
It's been just over a year since we became a party of 6! Our family feels complete now. At mealtimes every seat is filled with a squirming, happy little girl. I look in the rearview mirror of the car and there they are - the four daughters I was always supposed to have. I feel like I've been waiting for this moment ever since I was a little girl playing house with my dolls. It feels too good to be true!
The girls are flourishing. Olive and Rosie love school and I'm completely blown away by their reading, writing, and drawing abilities. Madeline is picking up so much just by listening to them. Naturally, I think they are the best and brightest children I have ever met! I'd like to put together a coffee table book of the their drawings. They make me tremendously happy!
Since finishing our kitchen and bath renovations we are taking a break from big projects and just enjoying our home. I keep a few small decorating projects going on the side purely for enjoyment and Isaac happily obliges that little passion of mine. Speaking of Isaac, he is thriving! His work environment and schedule changed recently as part of a very exciting merger and we are thrilled! Family dinners are back in rotation and I'm already planning spring evenings on the deck now that we have our main man home before sundown.
I love my days with the girls. Becoming a mother brought out the best parts of me (and shined a light on the rough bits too, I'll add!), and I'm so grateful to get up every morning and do what I love most! What an incredible gift getting to play a part in shaping the hearts and minds of these precious girls. I love my job!
Look forward to sharing more with you soon!
xx Christine
