The big 4-0
Hi friends! I hope that youโre having an amazing week! Iโm taking the day off today because both kids are under the weatherโฆ and itโs my bday!
TBH, I don’t typically enjoy birthdays. Another year on the calendar; a tangible reminderย of the things I want to achieve but havenโt yet accomplished.
This year feels different. This year, I just feel gratitude for this life, our family, our friends that feel like family, and for another year of amazing memories. I heard a rumor that 40s are even better than 30s, so Iโm hoping itโs true!ย
Here are some of the things I learned after four decades on this beautiful planet:
– Start each day with gratitude. It will affect your mindset and actions for the entire day.
– Itโs ok to change your mind when presented with new information.
– Trust in God with all your heart.
– Just because it works for one person, doesnโt mean it works for everyone.
– Health is one of the best investments you can make. When youโre sick, nothing else matters
– Forgiveness is a gift you give yourself
– The healing power of a walk outside in the sunshine
– Everything is temporary. This is a good thing, but also a bad thing.
– Your habits and mindset are a reflection of who you surround yourself with. My tribe inspires me every single day with motherhood, work, relationships, and life.
– Live a life thatโs true to YOU that you love. Find pockets of joy in the day.
– Be thankful for the past, hopeful for the future, yet grounded in the present.
Thank you for being a part of my journey, friends.
Weโll be spending the day hanging out, and capping it off with some gluten-free funfetti cake tonight.
Iโll see ya tomorrow!
xoxo
