Sometimes the really small things are actually the biggest. As a new mom, life is absolutely busier and more overwhelming, but it’s also a little bit more beautiful. When I’m starting to get stressed out, taking time (even just a few seconds) to reflect on the special, funny, or sweet moments in my day has helped me feel better. Last night I went on a walk with Theo and I started doing a mental checklist of all the looming tasks for the week (classic Sunday situation). I thought about someone I needed to email and went to put the note in my phone, but I wasn’t able to because Theo was holding on tight to my middle finger. It made me shockingly emotional to pause and adore his small, perfect hand holding onto mine. It can be so easy to get caught up in your own world and forget how markedly intertwined you are with those around you. Anyway, that moment made my whole week and I’m going to be thinking about it for a long time. If you’re out there feeling overwhelmed, I hope you can find one small, beautiful part in your day to carry you through too. 🧡 #momlife
