S I X . 7 . 4 . 2 1
Oh what can happen in just 6 years. The things we’ve created, seen and done together. I am beyond grateful and my heart is so full. Of course, I also see, and feel, the wrinkles, the sun spots, the change in our physical selves, the exhaustion. But the babies, the home, the family, and friendships, the growth, progress, the opportunity and joy every year with you brings . . . And this is just 6 and just the beginning? Thank you for the most amazing 10 years with you. 🤍 @jakecacci

I don’t get on my mat nearly as much as I use to or as much as I would like. Not because I can’t, but usually because I have some excuse or I go off and do something else that’s seemly more important? . . . But when I do, I’m reminded of a few things. I’m reminded of the tightness, the neglected muscles after having two babes, hustling and living for the kids. I’m reminded of the fit and flexible 20 something that got on her mat 5 days x week and ran just as often. But somewhere in between the inhales and exhales, thinking about what’s for dinner tonight or if the kids are happy, I pull it together and make s p a c e for me. I’m grateful to be alive. I’m grateful that my family in Cali are ok. And I’m grateful for JC who got the kids out of the house so I could have space to acknowledge myself and all that I do have. So let the practice be a vehicle to get out of my head and get back to myself. And this morning while I listened to @goldieyoga , one of my first yoga teachers, I was reminded that this body has been doing yoga for 10 years and that’s pretty dope. 🤌🏽
Lots of ups and changes for us over here in the past 8 - 12 months. 2 moves. 2 new jobs. 2 au pairs. a new build. all the obvious 2020 baggage and all the mama/wife/self emotions to back it all up. grateful for these 3 for keeping me on the ground and reminding me about what’s most important. @jakecacci 🖤
V O T E ◼️
a little graphic I created for @yorkathleticsmfg during the first presidential debate—for a day where your voice counts and for a moment that feels like it’s holding the weight of the world.
Tagging as many as IG will let me (there are many of you) who are megaphones for change and have inspired me to be a stronger woman and to use my voice.
Please share for our children, our future, our planet, for decency, kindness, LOVE, our right to V O T E.
