[Sign from Hobby Lobby but I couldn’t find it online]
We did it! We made it to the halfway point of the week!! Happy Wednesday Friend!! I hope the first part of the week is going great for you + that it ends great too!!
Where’s your favorite place to be? Mine is HOME! [If you didn’t see that coming ha!] With the last year we’ve had it made me realize how important home is to me. It’s the place I long to be when I’m sad, tired, scared, happy, you get the idea.
With having to stay home so much lately I made it my mission to make my room my sanctuary. As most of you know I live with my Grandma because I’m the sole + primary care giver for her. My room is really the only space I can do what I want, have me sparkly good, white, neutral decor ha! It’s the place where I spend most of my time when I’m not taking care of my grandma, doing things around the house etc.
With the four walls of my room its my safe place. Nothing bad can get me when I’m in there. Not saying that my grandmas house doesn’t make me feel that way but its decorated her way ya know? My room is filled with my belongings. I have dreamed of how I’m going to decorate my own home when I get it. That will bittersweet but thats for another day.
I bought this sign from Hobby Lobby because it spoke to me in so many ways. First, I’m a homebody + love being home. But second, the part about it being the story of who we are + a collection of all the things we love is so true. I love being at my parents house + looking at the back yard + remembering all the times my brothers + I played out there. I love looking at all the decor my parents display. We either gave them some, made some, or some was passed down from family members.
I love how the things we display helps tell the story of us + who we are, what we’ve been through. I love sitting around surrounded by family + everyone is laughing + smiling, reminiscing about old memories. Making plans, eating good food + making memories. I love the safety + security that home offers.
I pray that everyone knows what its like + gets to experience it!
