this is a very random post. I'm completely overwhelmed with life right now...so this is gonna be short. 


But there are so many small things to be happy about right now...


hot chocolate and writing




a bright spot on my window




a blue bottle and the drink that was in it




amazing food. every single day




an adorable brother




leftovers from thanksgiving




a trip to the bead store




sourdough starter, and the sister who makes it





a little brother's science experiment





an inspiring sister





muffins that actually turned out, even though i made them





an adorable friend arriving in the mailbox




my first coffee, and the someone who bought it




sisters who sew




a new addiction (just kidding.)




and when i thought life couldn't get any crazier, it did. 

But this time, it's a good crazy. 


Because recently, i have something big to be happy about.
Very happy about.
