Did a really simple makeover to a sad, gray bathro Did a really simple makeover to a sad, gray bathroom to make it a little more fun and colorful for my toddler! So happy with how it turned out, and it ended up being such an inexpensive facelift! Inexpensive flexible moulding for the mirror, paint, an IKEA shower curtain, and some Etsy wall art made all the difference! #toddlermom #whimsy #roommakeover #whimsicalhome #colorfulhome

When I became a mom, I was unprepared for the fier When I became a mom, I was unprepared for the fierce love and protectiveness I was overcome with. It was (and still is) terrifying having my heart exist outside of my body and trusting it to the world. 
Motherhood is the greatest gift and hardest job I’ve ever had. Being both a ‘forever mom’ and a foster mom has formed me into a stronger, more passionate, more empathetic, and creative version of myself. My life and work before kids felt important and meaningful, but raising kind, caring kids to impact their future communities and world feels like my most important purpose yet ❤️
