Geometric Heart Print

1.26.2017

Geometric Heart Print - Valentine's Day Printable

I think it’s safe to say that if you’re reading my blog, you’ve probably found yourself lost in Pinterest once or twice (a week?). I feel like I visit the site for one purpose and twenty minutes later I feel like an empowered woman who wants four new outfits, two new puppies, and who’s on her way to Michael’s to make fifteen projects after work. I mean really, you need some serious woman-power to get yourself off that site. But I’m not a quitter, so you can find me there if you need me.

During holiday seasons, I usually cruise Pinterest to get some decorating ideas. That, and free prints for my holiday frames. Hint: You can spend $19.99 on a framed Valentine’s print at Target, or you can just buy a cheap frame (spray-paint it if needed), and print a freebie off Pinterest. This is the bane of my existence.

DIY Valentine's Print - Geometric Heart

I found a few cute prints this year, but really wanted something a little more hands-on. So what’s a girl to do when she can’t find what she’s looking for? She makes it of course! So I got out my ruler, black marker, and went to town. I created this geometric heart print all by my lonesome (you might think this is not a huge feat, but I am NOT a drawer in any way, shape, or form). Printed two copies, cut pieces from one to trace onto patterned paper, and then glued said pieces onto the other. It’s pretty simple, although a little time consuming. Perfectly paired with a new show my husband is loving on Netflix (that I find a little slow).

In case you don’t have the extra time during a boring Netflix show, you can always just print my version (although it definitely isn’t as cool as making it yourself).

When I became a stay at home mom, I thought it wou When I became a stay at home mom, I thought it would only be for a year at most. But as it turned out, I was lucky to be able to make it last as long as it has. What no one ever tells you though about becoming a SAHM, is that your whole identity can get wrapped up in being a mom. And for some women, that’s not a good thing. But for me, it’s a phenomenal thing. It’s an incredible time in my life that I wouldn’t trade for anything. That doesn’t mean I’m not exhausted or irritated at all, it just means I’ll take all of the negatives because the positive completely outweighs it for me. 

This should go without saying, that if you AREN’T satisfied with just being a mom, that’s okay too. For some women, having something else that is THEIRS makes them a better mom. And more power to you!

Back when I was growing up (wayyyyyyy back then), Back when I was growing up (wayyyyyyy back then), it seemed like most people grew up around their extended families. By the time I was in my twenties, it just seemed more likely that you’d be living away from your home towns, starting your own life. But what we didn’t realize was what that meant down the road, when we would start our own families. That our village wouldn’t be made of our family, but instead close friends. The only problem with that, is that most other young parents are working to support themselves, thus aren’t always available to be your village. It can be hard to ask a friend for help when you know she’s simultaneously drowning in her own house. 

So if it “takes a village,” but you’re doing it on your own, I see you. It’s HARD, and it is exhausting. But one day we will be on the other side of these days, telling our babies that it takes a village. And hopefully, we will be right down the road to help them. 🩵

After having my first daughter, I felt like I knew After having my first daughter, I felt like I knew a lot about parenting. I had it down, we had a routine and a schedule and she was pretty easy to handle. Then we had a second. And I realized that everything I THOUGHT I knew about parenting was a lie. I wasn’t a pro at “parenting,” I was a pro at parenting HER. Now I do everything I can not to laugh when a mom of only one child talks like I did. I get it, we’ve been there too, and I’m not judging. But the more kids you add in, the more experience you get as a parent. Because every personality is SO different, that the way you parent one isn’t always the same as the way you parent the others. 

Thoughts?
When I heard this audio, I instantly loved it. It’s such a crazy thing to see in nature, that God is showing us just how stressful and depleting being a new mama can be. 

So if you’re in the thick of it mama, just know you’ll get your pink back soon.

I don’t think we talk enough about how great it I don’t think we talk enough about how great it feels when your child feels safe with someone else. It may be a family member or a best friend, but it’s such a good feeling to know they have another rock in their life.
