“Look for Light” I whisper to myself as Darkness closes in. Light is endless….it’s eternal….and though Pain, Despair and Exhaustion threaten to smother me, I pause. I focus. I breathe. I search for and find Light, even when Darkness seems relentless. Even in Darkness, Light holds me. It heals me. It guides me. #loss #trauma #remembering #digitalart #painting #painttherapy

Siah just finished an art explorations class at school and came home with this piece. I can’t wait to get it framed and hung. #watercolor #siahchristopher

A little more playing around. I do prefer actual paint; but, with no set up or clean up….this is kind of fun. #digitalart #digitalpainting #learningsomethingnew

After the craziness of the past few days, it was so lovely to go for a walk in the neighbourhood at dusk and just breathe. #willoughby #langley #mybackyard #lovewhereyoulive #yorkson #dusk

This sweet boy was born at the most traumatic time of our lives. He has dealt and continues to deal with so much in his young life. He acts and reacts to life with all the bravery, courage and wisdom that a 9 year can muster. Some days we fight through, in spite of the anxiety; and some days, we regroup, relax and recharge. #bakingwithmomma #christmastreats #judahzane #trauma #traumarecovery

I’m laying in bed in my nasty comfy sweater. It’s been a while since I checked in. I’m…..uh……overwhelmed. We bought a business in July and while I LOVE it. I feel like I added “working” on top of an already overloaded life and something has to give because it’s just not possible to “do everything.” I prioritize evening rest and shut down when the kids go to bed but I’m not entirely certain if that’s because I choose to do so or if it’s because I have absolutely nothing left to give at that point. I’m running…..walking….crawling on fumes, these days. I have my Holiday Open House coming up in 3 days and while I’m SO excited because that “creative side” of me has been mostly dormant – it’s also taking energy that I don’t really have available BUT……I don’t want to not have it this year and then lose momentum, if I have the energy and drive for next year. So I gathered some creative people to help me and it’s going to be amazing. I just need to make it through this week and weekend. I can do that, right? For sure I can. I’m just tired……SO tired! The kind of tired that a night of sleep doesn’t fix. Do you know that kind of tired? The brain, body, and emotional exhaustion that makes you feel like you just want to run away. Far, FAR away…..somewhere hot with waves crashing. #dreamingofthebeach #latenightmusings #exhaustion
