It's nearing the two year mark. Nearly two years without blogging. Nearly two years of taking care of my sweet baby and now wild toddler. Nearly two years since I closed my online stationery shop to adjust/perfect my business plan and create a better home/work/life balance.
I haven't stopped designing, nor have I perfected my business plan. I have not lost any of my passion for nature, beauty, family, photography, stationery, travel and learning. I've had an amazing nearly two years that have been mostly filled with tons and tons of time with my two little girls. They are both incredible little human beings. As some of you know, the first two years of a person's life are totally miraculous and I have had the luxury of (thanks to my husband) not missing a single milestone in either of my two daughter's lives.
Though my design life has not been my priority for some time, I am working to find a little more time, energy and space to devote to that part of myself. A new friend asked me to show her some of my design and art work recently and I popped open my (dusty) blog. It was incredible to look back at my simple stories and photographs. As a designer, I am often seeking outside inspiration, but that day I looked at my blog in its imperfect, but lovely form, I inspired myself.
Thanks for reading.
