I read this twice simply because it made me feel so good. Thank you, Amanda. It’s been a rough week here too, and you have now made *me* feel better.

I’m so sorry about your foot. It’s so rough not being able to get those endorphins going when we need them for a boost! xoxoxo

I have had a rough week with my three babies (home alone stuck on our snowy mountain top, husband working too much missing all of the special and crazy moments) and I had almost completely healed my broken foot (smashed into crib at 3am:( and I smashed into the baby’s swing the exact same way with the healing foot last night on my all nighter up with my 7 month old and it’s black and swollen and definitely re broken 🙁

I’m so frustrated that I can’t practice the way I need to feel good and I was just getting back into everything that fills me up. Your writing has snapped me out of my funk and opened my eyes to the real beauty that is all around me, the magic of these days that will be a memory soon. I won’t remeber how badly my foot hurts but I will always remember my daughter saying “see you later!” As she walked away from me into another room today:) thank you thank you thank you! Xoxo
