…lf. I find when I put others above myself…I’m happier. That is not to say, I don’t get alone and be still. I cherish those moments. But, with 5 kids, 2 dogs, 1 DIY husband, 6 chickens, homeschooling, and laundry…it just doesn’t happen often. Want to know a secret? When I do start thinking about myself…all the time, I find more things to be unhappier about. I want to cherish the times I do have and not waste more time wanting “me” time. So enjoy JO…
