    Life feels like it hasn’t wanted to let up this Life feels like it hasn’t wanted to let up this week. While yes, we’ve been back home from a weekend stay at the hospital, so many little things seem to be constantly happening. I keep plugging away and throwing a smile on but damn when I wake up in the morning I need my tea and I’m tired of arguing over medication and hey, let’s throw in a few more negative things this way just for the sake of it 🤪 “The best view comes after the hardest climb” ⛰ Trying to focus on the good, create something to look forward to, and to channel the energy I’ve got into something positive. We’ve all been there, and we’ll all be there again. It’s the hard times that help mold us ❤️ #goodvibes #motivation #badtimesdontlast #staystrong #stayingstrong #mentalhealth #mentalhealthmatters #everydaymotivation #everydaymoments #lifeisnoteasy #lifeisnotperfect #instamood #mindsetiseverything

    That bittersweet moment when your kids go back to That bittersweet moment when your kids go back to school. They’ve been out for a year and a half. We opted to homeschool last year which was both terrifying (at first) but amazing (in all the ways). I have so many thoughts on this, and I’m super glad we were forced into this option and able to give it a try. We made so many memories, had so much freedom, and in a way, I can totally see how this way of life could be not just viable but amazing for us. But these guys are ready… They’re ready to head back into the classroom and to give their lives that structure. They’re ready to see and collaborate with their friends again. They’re ready to go be their best selves (I hope) away from us and their siblings. And we’ll always have these amazing memories that we were able to share over the past year ✨ #backtoschool #summerisover #school #homeschool #makingmemories #wehadablast #schooldays #backtolife #childhoodunplugged #highschool #elementaryschool #bittersweet #fallvibes #wildandfree #growingtoofast

    Just going to do a little bit of book review catch Just going to do a little bit of book review catching up this week I think. I’ve got quite a few of books I’ve read but have yet to share. Let’s start with The Read Aloud Handbook by Jim Trelease. So this book although it looks thick, it’s actually only takes up half the book, with the other half being a resource of books that are good read aloud options for a variety of ages, reading levels, etc. The handbook promotes read alouds at all ages by diving into the benefits it provides to your kids. Although it focuses more of its attention on young children, it’s still just as relevant for older kids and teens. This is something I believe in regardless, but reading this I felt like I learned of why it’s really a benefit, and not just ‘good for you to read’. I’d definitely recommend this one and I’d give it ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #bookstagram #books #booksofinstagram #booksbooksbooks #bibliophile #bibliophilelife #bibliophiles #readersofinstagram #reader #readeveryday #nonfictionbooks #nonfiction #readingaloud #readingaddict #read #bookrecommendations #bookreview #booknerd #bookaddict #booklover #booklove #alwaysreading #raisingbookworms #bookworm #readeveryday #bookwormlife #alwayslearning
    Oh heyyyy it’s a book! I’ve been a slow reader Oh heyyyy it’s a book! I’ve been a slow reader lately. So much going on 🙈 but here I am with another finished book! Picked up The Wedding Date and it was the perfect summer read. I tend to like an easy romance in the summer, not sure why, maybe because there’s always so much going on?! I loved the characters, and found the storyline really cute and relatable. I also found the interracial relationship discussion on point, in the sense that it gets brought up in a relaxed but completely meaningful way. Where as when I read Just Like You it felt like an afterthought in the plot?! Id definitely recommend this one! #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #booklover #bookrecommendations #bookreview #books #booksbooksbooks #booksbooksandmorebooks #reading #readersofinstagram #read #readersofig #bibliophile #bibliophilelife #booknerd #booknerdigans #bookaddict #alwaysreading #fictionmatters #romancebooks #romancebookstagram #theweddingdate

    That moment when you’re starting to feel rushed That moment when you’re starting to feel rushed and scrambled and all over the place… But you take that 5 minutes to stop at the skatepark to see one of your kids having a good time (thanks to your neighbour that brought him). It’s 100% worth it. Take the time to breath and to enjoy the little moments before they’re all gone ❤️❤️ #1000hoursoutside #dailymoments #shamoftheperfect #childhoodunplugged #wildandfreechildren #wildandfree #makingmemories #childhoodmemories #summervibes #summer #summerdays #getoutside #getoutdoors #scooter #scootering #skatepark #skateparkfun #documentyourdays #lifeiswhatyoumakeit #lifeisworthliving #lifeisgood #takeadeepbreath #outside #outdoors
