Stopping to Smell the Roses

SmelltherosesThis girl. We are all getting caught up in the flurry of our new weekday schedule. Eloise loves school so far, and is happily settling in. (PHEW!) While big sis is doing her thing every day, Mae and I have unprecedented one-on-one time. And it’s great. I have forgotten how sweet this toddler age is. Always learning and moving and changing. Coming into her own. Mae is a constant (sometimes literal!), reminder to stop and smell the roses. To take a deep breath and appreciate the good things that happen every day, instead of (in my case, instinctively) getting overwhelmed by the negative. Love you so much, my sweet girl! I’m excited for our adventures together.
