Links I Love

It has been a while since I have left a few links that I love.  To be honest, I have been a little blogged out this week.  Maybe it is the spring weather we were blessed with - busy outside - harder to take a moment at the computer.  Maybe it is that I have almost hit 100 followers and that is very exciting and a little overwhelming.  Or maybe it is just the flow of blogging - there are times when there are days I could post 3 times and times when I am too busy living life....and I guess that is what I have been trying to focus on this week - Living life.  Enjoying the weather. Being present with my boys.  Going to bed early.  And trying to feel 100% again.  Who knows...but today here are a few links I have come across the last few days that have stayed with me.  Enjoy!


This one titled: Somebody Wants What You Have is powerful!  It reminds me to approach some of the little frustrations with a different outlook.

Go Ahead, Let Motherhood Redefine You  This post has a number of great points.  Being a mother is the biggest challenge I will have and it is also the experience that will teach me most about who I am.  This post touches on why this is true.

Meghan writes a blog about being a mom to her three kids.  EVERY. POST.  has me nodding my head - meaning I get it - I have been there - that is my life.  I have no idea where she lives - but I do believe that her post on Groceries this solidified the thought that she would be a great "real life" friend if we were neighbors, shopping at the same Target, disheveled - but thrilled to have accomplished the days errands with one, two, or for her - three children in tow.  Her post was me - almost exactly on Monday morning!

Nine Words women use was posted on a new blog I came across.  I don't think Ali wrote this - from the way she posted it.  It reminds me of one of those forward emails that goes around.  I will have to check with her.  But I thought it was HILARIOUS - and SO TRUE!  And I am so glad she posted it.  It gave me a chuckle!

And if you have 5 minutes today - READ THIS POST from the blog Enjoying the Small Things - it is such an amazing birth story.  One that will sit with you.  One that will stay with you.  One that you will want others to read. 

Have a great Friday friends.  It is cold here again. Boo!  But I also kind of like the way the seasons change here in Minnesota.  A few beautiful days and then they are ripped from our little hands for a few days....but I know they will gently be handed back to us again - and soon enough they will be here to stay.
