52-Week Blog Challenge --- Week 26 -My Biggest Fears
Definitely, 100% my biggest fear is something happening to my kids or husband. That mama bear instinct to protect is alive and well in my brain and heart. Social media exasperates my anxiety, so I've learned to not scroll through it nearly as much as I used to.
With that being said, I know that there is so much more good in the world than bad. Unfortunately, many times the bad/sad/traumatic/life-altering gets the media attention more than the good, so for me and my mental health I've slowly learned to back away and focus on the good that I have in my life. Don't get me wrong though, that anxiety rears it's ugly head every now and then (it happened this past week and I spent all night watching my kids sleep because I was so scared of something happening to them), but I've learned how to calm my anxieties better in the past few years.#workinprogress

Cool dudes ready for some summer pool-time fun!
I love summer flowers and zinnias are one of my favorites...
No I'm not ready for school to be back in session next month, but our schedule is pretty busy between now and then, so I went ahead and got all of their school supplies and packed them so that we're ready to go to Open House...
This is the only way I could keep straight what each kid needed...
Kindergarten supplies for Ellis...cue the tears...
