606 Days
I’ve been looking forward to today for a while. I met up with a dear friend- someone that lights up the world around me. We sat and ate at a cute little vegan friendly diner by the beach. I didn’t want to leave. I missed the joy-filled moments we shared and was in so much peace to share a little bit of our journey together.
I look forward to re-connecting with her further. For the support and encouragement and laughter that will be sure to meet us when we get together.
I cannot express the gratitude I have for people like this dear friend- for the grace and acceptance and availability to be with me. I haven’t smiled and laughed like this in a long time. It simply feels wonderful.
Going to “work” was a fresh of breath air. The inspiration to live with complete passion and devotion was re-instilled in me today. To love others around me and be a blessing where I’m at.

A normal person experiences trauma and crisis over increments throughout ones lifetime. I seem to be the exception.
I married my husband after a few months of being together. Every moment since, beginning with our wedding day, has been a moment of crisis. We tried to solve our problems and then it fell apart. On our 3 year anniversary I started this blog. Alone and away from my husband. Almost another 700 days passed before I recommitted my time to finishing this project, complete the healing process that I let myself get distracted with.
It was the advise from my aunt to give everything 700 days before seeing things get better.... and we will have survived the hardest part of raising the kiddos.
700 days to journey through what will be the toughest part of our marriage: with three kids under the age of two, confronting depression, and everything else that has been working its way against us.
