Can't Stop My Happy

Dress: Target (non-maternity), Belt: Forever 21, Bracelet: beach boutique,
Sandals: Target


Guys, I'm smiling all the time these days.  I'm not worrying about what others think, how I compare against someone else, whether or not my smile is making someone uncomfortable.  I'm just being me.  Call it my glow.  Call it the hormones. Call it what you will, but I am loving life right now.

I always hoped or dreamed, if you will, that when I became a mother I would stop worrying about the petty stuff.  I thought it would be a conscious decision to avoid drama, avert criticism/judgement, but it's not.  It's totally natural.  There is so much BIGGER than all that nonsense.  So much more.  There is a miracle growing inside my belly.  Who am I to take away from that magic and concern myself with lesser things?
What are you smiling about lately?

    Pregnancy looks GOOD on you! It's crazy how a child can change your entire perspective. I've definitely been a happier more confident person since I've become a mom!
