Sistersssssss. Snapped this as we waited for the rest of our group to gather to celebrate my birthday with a long-awaited, FIRST DINNER OUT post-pandemic and since the weather got warmer this past May. As I’ve gotten older, I’m finally “getting” why everyone says your thirties are so good. You’ve finally tried enough that you know what you like or don’t like. You have preferences and a better sense of priorities. One of mine? No more shitty sunglasses! I know what I like and it doesn’t matter if they are cheap and cute, I *NEED* a polarized lens. These @mohalaeyewear sunglasses are such a favorite that every time I wear them, I want to slap my 20-year old self for all the wasted money I spent on crappy pairs with weird-colored lenses or poor fit. No mas. Your thirties are for the good stuff.

You know, with everything going on in our country right now, I’ve found myself spiraling into this very discouraged and frustrated state. I already have my hands full with my family and a business. I LOVE both! Where am I going to slide activism into my day? Already, so little is stacked in favor of women who choose to be mothers, it’s no wonder the system is rotten through. The women who should be running things are tied up juggling EVERYTHING else. I’m already worried about my daughters’ basic rights, now clean air… the environment. Everyone’s health and wellness. Do we need to move abroad? How will I build another business all over again? See what I mean? Spiraling. But then I looked at my kids, and my boys specifically, and felt such a rush of gratitude. To be able to raise the kind of men and women the world needs is such a gift. So that is what I’m choosing to focus on right now. 🌍 💕

I could just EAT him, he is so delicious. Should he be holding windex wipes? Yeah, probably not. Is he my fourth child? 100% No worries over here. He’s fine.

Been a very busy June, to say the least! Celebrated SO much but the highlights include: Caroline’s 5th Toy Story themed birthday, Father’s Day, the last day of school (officially; C has been out for a month already), our 10th wedding anniversary, and our niece and nephew’s 2nd and 5th birthdays, respectively. Pheww.
