Halfway through March and it is suddenly winter around these parts.

We are dreaming of spring while staying close to the fire!

I always like it when I can surprise my kiddos with something special after dinner or at a lazy Saturday brunch. These fun drinks will have them all high five-ing you and asking for St. Patrick’s Day all year round!

I love the encouragement in this post to be who I was created to be, rather than trying to constantly be like the next Pinterest success or Instagram wonder pic! In the middle of winter, this was just the reminder I needed.

You’re more creative than you might feel or think.

“Trust me. I’m a creative, and sometimes I struggle to be enough. I know how it is: You scroll through social media and Pinterest and it feels like everyone was created with 10 times more ingenuity than you. You wonder, How is everyone so amazingly playful, intentional, color-coordinated, light-filled, mess-proof, delightfully-messy, time-laden, beauty-finding, detail-specific, and incredibly good at making food look so much more delicious than what’s on your plate? Even her grilled cheese looks extra….gooey.”
