Here we are, stepping into summer with school winding down and everything feeling a little…unfinished. Laundry piles, projects paused, dreams delayed—it’s all still here. But maybe that’s not a failure—it’s an invitation to flourish in life’s unfinished moments. Maybe it’s not about rushing to complete everything, but learning to embrace peace in the middle of life’s…
If your house is anything like mine, mornings can feel like organized chaos—with a side of cold coffee.
