Beautiful Mess

Just lately, I found myself realizing how essential it is to our humanity that we realize our imperfection. That it's okay to love someone who loves someone else. It's okay to suck at dancing or sing off key once in awhile. As long as you know how to have adventures, and you take time to smile at a stranger, or hug someone you love, you're as perfect as you'll ever get. take ownership of your imperfection. because you know what? you're beautiful.

New Instrument!

Merry Christmas to me! I got this lovely little old guitar at the Class and Trash in  Richmond, a little antique type store full of little treasures! it was the perfect consolation for a three hour drive back home through traffic with a very hungry and tired baby. I think it's perfectly adorable.

You're ugly and old but you sound just fine,

the hole in your heart just matches mine

and my tattered wrist is strumming time with you!

a silly little rhyme on the way home :)


ps: happy first Sunday of Advent! Let's make this one count.
