It’s been a while. 

We took some time off over Christmas and the start of 2019 to recharge, process and just spend some quality time together and with family and friends, without our phones, social media etc. It was SO good, that it ended up being a couple months of space which was so needed. We’re feeling so much better for it! 

Time is a strange but beautiful thing. In many ways, time really is the best healer, as I’ve said before, but in many ways time can feel like it’s keeping you in the midst of the pain and cause us to live with all the thoughts of ‘what if?’, ‘what would today look like if x&y hadn’t happened?’ 

These questions can be helpful to process but they can also be extremely painful. 

Where am I going with this post today? I guess I’m saying that taking time to grieve, to process, to heal can be so helpful to pause, reflect and become more aware of the beauty that we have in our lives. This past couple months, Luke and I have taken time to do just that – pause and reflect. It’s been a beautiful time of remembering and seeing the wonderful gifts that we have in our lives. We’ve become even more thankful for the smaller things in life that bring us joy. Thankful for the hope that we have been given. Thankful for the dreams that we are seeing fulfilled and thankful for the dreams we have that are yet to be fulfilled. 

So, I’m late to the game but with all that being said, here’s to 2019! Here’s to a year of more joy, a year of more hope, a year of more beauty and a year of more healing and wholeness. 

I’m excited to keep journeying with you all. 

With so much love, 

Claire xo
