The One Where The Fawn Gushes Because Her Heart Is Simply Bursting

Over the last few days I've had some really wonderful chats with some of my favourite people and my heart is so full of love for their kind words & warm hugs. Most of the folks in my life, by now, get the gist of what's been going on with the boy & myself, and so a great deal of them have been more than happy to be sounding boards, as I attempt to make sense of the whirlwind that is my life at this time.

Even when I feel lower than dirt, squashed & forlorn, I am always astonished, yet ever so grateful for those people surrounding me who are just so good. For those who bring me tea & berries, for those who hold my hand, for those who love my daughter, for those who send me lovely messages to buck up my spirits when all seems near-lost, for those who know me well, for those who care deeply -- for all of you, I pour out streams from my heart in awe and honour.

This month has been near nightmarish, however, somehow also empowering. Choices and opportunities for change, fresh starts and new beginnings... reasons to let vulnerability soar to the highest of highs. Something will have to give in the next little while, and knowing you lovelies might be along for the ride, gives me just that much more hope.

It'll be alright, it'll be alright, it'll be alright, it'll be okay.

In 15 days I'll be boarding a plane, BlogHer-bound, traveling 4200km from my doorstep, for four entire days of fabulous insanity. For those attending, I hope to meet as many of you as humanly possible. I feel this shall be an emotional trip & I know that I will return home rejuvenated in some way.

I have faith in the future, dear friends. In happiness and a beautiful life.

And I know that's what'll get me through whatever the world might throw my way.
