Your morning mantra

Start your day inspired: May 5, 2025

I never expected this to happen in May, but it did.

We woke up to skies covered in dark clouds, not a stray ray of sunshine peeking through.

It had rained all night.

Mud and puddles were seeping through the grass.

All of our kids’ baseball and softball games were cancelled.

We had a nice, slow Sunday together.

We lit a fire in the fireplace.

We popped popcorn.

We played together.

We got a few chores done.

But mainly we spent the day enjoying each other’s company.

Our cold spring has me craving warmer days with sunshine.

But we really needed this slow day.

When life is giving you a chance to slow down, take it.

Here’s to slowing down and savoring our precious days,

Lauren
