Today is my birthday! I am twenty-five, and with it comes a legit stamp of adulthood. It’s weird, but twenty-five feels like my first milestone birthday, even though I don’t feel like celebrating it much. I look around, and there is just so much to celebrate and be thankful for everyday. Twenty-four was about growing and learning, and really it was my best year in terms of that. I think twenty-five will be a great one!
Making: lots of milk. I’m like a faucet honestly.
Cooking: lots of salads
Drinking: lots of water
Reading: the new Lucky magazine with Solange on the cover.
Wanting: more hours in the day
Looking: at Oak and River. River has grown into such a mature little lady.
Playing: hide and seek throughout our apartment. There aren’t many spots, but it’s pretty funny.
Wasting: time staring out the window and thinking.
Wishing: that I could remember every moment of everyday
Enjoying: a coffee
Waiting: on my body to fully heal from labor
Liking: that River says she loves Oak every morning. She then follows the love with a few kisses and too many squeezes.
Wondering: when can I go to the hair salon today? This mop is ready!
Loving: the quiet moments
Hoping: to think less and cuddle more
Marveling: at how I could love two kids this much, it’s amazing
Needing: more food. nursing problems
Smelling: the sweet neck of a newborn, there’s nothing better.
Wearing: glorified sweatpants.
Following: my heart, always.
Noticing: my husband’s strength.
Knowing: we all have bad days.
Thinking: about how life has a way of working.
Feeling: loved to the max.
Bookmarking: nothing. I wish
Opening: clean laundry, it just keeps on coming.
Giggling: when River and Peter sing and dance in the living room, they’re such a pair.
Feeling: strong and loved.
Perfect! I totally get all of this! My last birthday I turned 25 and for me it was my official stamp of adulthood. Even though I'm a wife and mother, turning 25 made me feel as if I had official grown woman status… Silly but true.

Happy birthday mama!
Happy birthday! Your outlook on life is so inspirational to me. Thank you for always keeping it real and ending on a sweet note.
Happy Birthday Miss Latonya!
Happy birthday! I enjoy these kinds of posts. One thing I loved about bringing home a new baby (I have 3) is seeing how the older sibling all of a sudden matures and steps into a new role. And yes, it is amazing how much love you can have for all your children. Hope you continue to have a healthy recovery!
Happy Birthday!!
