I don't know about you but I'm glad school is back in session.  For my fellow mamas that understand, summer is short yet long, loud and oh so messy!  

 

In spite of the chaos, this season is a precious awaited time to connect, spend time and love on our favorite humans.  My excitement is always building core memories with my kids. Those slow mornings and late nights. Daddy's homemade popcorn and back to back movies.  Picnics in the living room for dinner, and homemade pancakes in the morning. The weekends in the pool, had to be my favorite as I would often find one of the boys fast asleep somewhere in the house wrapped in a towel after their bath.  I know I will cherish these moments.

 

Summers are just made for living, seeing and experiencing everything around us, and it really does happen all at once.  

On the flip side of it all, the dismantling of a routine was refreshing yet daunting when we needed to jump back into a schedule. I knew I had to get back to the basics.

 

Jumping back in forced me to really look at so many things.  The space we live in, what we needed to improve or get rid of, the budget I was not following and the diet I was not on. The unraveling was real!

 

The question then became: what are the essentials of getting back to the basics?  How are we spending time in our space to make us efficient?  Who and what are we spending time with that fills our cup, and where is all our money going? 

 

Join me on gearing up for the fall with a reset.  We are digging a bit deeper to build on our foundation with core essentials for living well!

 

See you in class or at the shop!
