Hi.

Dear Friends,

As I’m sure you’ve assumed by now, I’ve decided to stop blogging. Just this past week I have heard from a few of you asking how I am doing and making sure everything is okay, and it warmed my heart quite a bit, so I thought I would pop in here with a formal farewell (at least for now, as I’ll never know what the future holds).

I stopped blogging because it wasn’t making me happy anymore. About a month after I quietly slipped away, I read this post, and it confirmed that I was doing what I needed to be doing. I couldn’t put it into words nearly as eloquently as she did, but she managed to capture my feelings just beautifully, and for that, I was grateful.

My life over the last few months has been very blessed (it always has, but lately I feel especially lucky). Jon and I are in the family way again, we are expecting our second little one in May. Parker is growing into a hilarious toddler and everyday her personality seems to grow bigger than I ever thought possible. She is filled with sass to say the least (this makes me laugh lots and at the same time wonder what I am in for in the coming years).

Our life right now is perfectly imperfect and I am so very content with that. I think, for me, not sharing things with the whole world makes each moment a little more peaceful and a little more special. And the content feeling has come from the fact that I no longer have the feeling that someone somewhere is expecting something from me here, coupled with my becoming a full-time stay-at-home mama a couple months ago.

If you want to stay in touch (which I would love), feel free to friend me over on Facebook (where I occasionally check in) or follow me on Pinterest if you want to know what I am cooking for dinner, what room I am currently re-organizing or what kind of crafty fun I am attempting.

Thanks for reading and following along, it has been an honor to meet so many wonderful ladies through this blog.

Love, Lindsey
