There's something to be said about simplicity. So often, we tend to complicate things that are really quite simple. For instance. Taking the time to "smell the roses"...can often be clouded by thoughts of our daily "to do list". Enjoying reading a book with my son, can often (and I'm ashamed of this) lead to checking my phone, folding the laundry (which I HATE) or gazing off into my own thoughts. When its so simple to just sit there and listen to him, his small voice, that is quickly growing, and will soon be that of a man. Lets face it. Being a mom of three growing boys has its challenges. Some harder than others. I think my hardest challenge right now is to live in the moment. Be present with my kids. Listen to them. Turn off my "what I have to do next" thought process, and just enjoy them. I notice when I'm preoccupied, with other "things", I tend to get frustrated with them more easily, annoyed almost. Sounds so bad, I know. It's a constant struggle to "simplify" my life, my thoughts, my time.....just slow down, and really savor the blessings God has given me.
This look speaks simplicity to me. Jean shorts, and white tee, and some Chucks. I got this rock-n-roll, 70's style tee from Nastgal. I love vintage looking and feeling tshirts. This one has a feminine vibe, which I love. Finding the right high waist shorts can be difficult. Who wants a "mom butt"? Not this lady. High top converse has been on my "wish list" for some time now. I finally got them, and loved them instantly. These things wont stay white for long....I'm sure they will be riddled with dirt, grass stains, juice spills, and blacktop smudges before I know it. Oh well. I have boys.....I can deal with that. Besides, my friend told me I could wash them...and they will look good as new.
Naptime is over....mom life calls......
Until next time my friends....
