Bedroom Window

We have this awkward sized window above the bed in our bedroom. It helps keep our room bright and sunny….which is great but not if you are trying to sleep past 7 a.m! So…what to do? I couldn’t find anything to cover it up that was the right size, so I had to get a little creative….

Here it is before…

And here it is now. Somehow the curtain makes the room look really tall, which is good! And it helps center the bed in the room.

It is so nice not to have the sun in our eyes each morning! I am still looking for a cuter window treatment for the other two normal windows, but we are good for now.

And yes, that is Henry looking cute on my dresser.

To manage stress, I try to take frequent breaks, remember to smile and laugh every day, carve out some alone time every morning, exercise daily, and turn to friends and other resources available to me if I need extra support.

Gentle. That’s the word I’ve chosen for 2021. Gentle. That’s the word I’ve chosen for 2021. Gentle with my children. Gentle with my family. Gentle with myself. Gentle with those who believe differently than I do. Couldn’t we all use a little more gentleness? After 8 years of raising babies and a crazy 2020 it’s what my mind, body, and soul needs. And my kids and family need it from me too. Have you chosen a word for 2021? If so, let me know what it is! (and thank you @bluegrassred for the word inspo! I heard her talk about it a few times on @pantsuitpolitics and I couldn’t get it out of my head. Exactly what I need for this year!)
