Good Morning! I hope this finds you well. Our new home is progressing quickly. We bought our 1920s farmhouse this past January- a few days before Ida Colette was born. Since then we've been fixing it up slowly and starting our homestead. Between the bustling garden, our new chicks, the fruit trees, and the rabbits – we're staying busy. Oh yes and the four kids. Ha!
It's been quite an adjustment to switch from working to staying home again. I let a lot of my identity become wrapped up in my career, which truly was a dream job for me at times. However, my heart was always with my children and it killed me to be away- but it had to be done as a single parent. But now my heart is so full. I can focus on my home, my baby, and my family.
It was always my dream to have a little farm and now I have the most amazing partner a lady could ask for. Slowly yet surely, we're working towards our shared dream. I am constantly struck speechless at how full my soul feels. The affirmation of working together with someone who is your best friend and partner is so indescribable. Life just feels right... warm and bright. I feel like I could accomplish anything with him. Life no longer feels like a constant battle and slow death. But that's in the past thankfully. This new start on life, love, parenting, and pursuing a shared dream is what I want this place to be. A reflection of my life and progress. Writing out my thoughts has always been the best way for me to focus my gratitude and record growth. I'm excited to be able to do that again! Everyone needs a hobby, right?
Love and Light,
Nicole
