Hey! I don’t even know how to start this post. I wanted to jump aboard the blogging train. I wanted to stay consistent and blog well right out of the gate. Obviously, that hasn’t happened.
I also started running and I stopped. Well, not completely, but not consistently either. And, I would mentally beat myself up about those inconsistencies- how I am being a bad example, and if anyone is ever going to read my blog, I have to stay consistent and keep to the course and plan and execute and do.
But, yall. I’m human.
And I’m learning I can’t do it all.
There are seasons of life and I’ve chosen good things and wonderful things for this season – my family and home school and cooking and saving money and cleaning out all the junk. And sometimes, at the end of the day (which is the only time I can blog), I just cannot pour out any more. I just need my bed.
So, that is why it has been very quiet here. In the past I would want to say, I’m done – just cut the blog off. But, I’m not doing that this time. I am going to aim to blog 4 times a month – one time a week. New goal. And then, if that is still too much, I will re-visit that goal and revise it down.
I just wanted to let you know that I’m human. And I’m learning to be brave, not perfect. How do you want to be brave?

And here is a picture of Maverick – well, just because I wanted you to see part of his daily wardrobe. :-)
Happy Thursday, Loves!
Life IS busy with all of those things
And I can totally relate to only wanting my bed at the end of the day!![:(](https://hopefilledhome.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/frownie.png)
We just added our fifth to the mix. But can you believe your boys and my twins are nearly FIVE!!!!
Children are such a blessing! They are what is important.
So, don’t be discouraged! Once per week is good! But I totally understand why you might not have it in you at night. There is so much I would like to do but never get to it
I just keep checking back every so often. You are an encouragement to me. I even cleaned out my closet! And I finally put the coconut oil in my shower (for a moisturizer) that I’ve been meaning to do for months! So, see? You are helping others! You are helping me and I love reading your blog!
AWww!! You are too sweet! I cannot believe our kids are almost 5!!! I’m so glad to ‘re-connect’ with you! Thank you so much for the encouragement!!!
And MAV!!! HAHAHA!! The sunglasses are the best part!
I love this and I love you. Keep being brave! Posting once a week is better than not at all! “Progress not perfection” and “Done is better than perfect” are my favorite Lara mantras.
You are doing beautifully.
