May Outfit Summary

June 1, 2020June 3, 2020 | aladyandherlittles

May was full of distance learning, outdoor adventures, and trying to adjust to the changes in our lives. It flew by pretty quickly and I can honestly say we’re SO ready for summertime.

Now let’s get to the fun part- the outfits! I didn’t post as many this month (see busyness above 😉) but I did find some spring/summer favorites and throw together some fun pieces!

Wondering what these monthly summaries are all about?

Every month I do a summary of all my outfits I have posted on LIKEtoKNOW.it here on the blog for easy navigation and browsing! I know a lot of people don’t use the LTK app, so this is for you!

It’s Not Your Door.

𝐈𝐟 𝐢𝐭 𝐝𝐨𝐞𝐬𝐧’𝐭 𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐧, 𝐢𝐭’𝐬 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐝𝐨𝐨𝐫. ⁣

I’m guilty of trying to force those doors open. Trying to fit in to a box that wasn’t mine to be in.

I was driven by the constant need to fit in. Be included. Be LIKED. Fitting myself into a mold that just wasn’t me.
⁣

It was almost exactly a year ago when I decided to say “YES” to myself. ⁣
The real me- not the me that I thought I should be, or the one others wanted me to be. ⁣
⁣Did I wake up one day and suddenly not care what others thought?

Of course not.

I still struggle with that. Everyday. But what I did do was decide that MY opinion mattered more than anyone else’s.

Do I like who I am? Am I being true to myself? Am I happy? Are my actions affecting my loved ones?

Those are the questions that I constantly ask myself, especially when I find myself feeling less than or knocking on those doors that aren’t mine.

The last year I’ve found out more about myself and embraced my truth more than ever before. It’s been quite a year, and I’m so proud of my growth.

My only regret?⁣

They Call Me Mama.

May 11, 2020May 16, 2020 | aladyandherlittles

No one can prepare you for the high volumes of love that fill your heart when you become a mother, just like no one can prepare you for how hard it can be.

Its only fitting that the thing that brings us the most joy also tests our sanity and patience.

We learn to soak up the small moments, take all the pictures, and the power of a few deep breaths.

We learn that there is no such thing as a perfect mom. That there are different ways to parent and it’s OKAY.

There are hard days. Days where we don’t feel like we can keep giving it all, but somehow we do.

It isn’t easy to see the beauty when you’re in the thick of it all, but these are the days we will one day look back on and wish we could go back and slow time down a bit.

Motherhood is messy, chaotic, wonderfully beautiful, and unlike anything else.

I’m incredibly blessed to have these three precious souls call me mama.

Happy Mother’s Day to all of you wonderful mamas out there. 🤍
