It's late at night and I am feeling like I should write.
About the things that currently excite me, inspire me and keep me moving forward as a lover, friend and most importantly, mother.
Because when the sun shines this much during the day, it is incredibly easy to be inspired.
Summer, Baseball & Boys
Because they go and belong together. Because they both make me crazy happy: for all the ways it reminds me of a happy childhood I truly had and reminisce of. The summer means longer days at the park, Friday nights at Dodgers Stadium, and a perfect reason to go outside and watch the Martinez boys play ball. At the bare minimum.
Friendships
This is major. It's taken quite a few bad friends to bring me back to basics. Which means it is a good time to reevaluate the good ones I currently have, and nurture them like a mother. In the process, I promise to myself to let go of what could have, should have been with others that were not meant to remain...because I want my boys to believe in relationships beyond blood lines.
Self
Mad project. This adulthood thing is no joke and no one was playing when they said so. Our world may be quite unforgiving if you take the wrong turn, but is all that rewarding when you stop to enjoy the freedom and independence that comes along with it. The plan is to get back to never fearing the unknown and to trust that shit always works out. Fact.

Family
I am experiencing something I many a times feel hella unworthy of. I get to raise two little beauties that call me beautiful, lovey, fluffy and mama. And there is nothing more life altering than that kind of love.

Love
Only because there is always more love to give and receive.
Work
Trying to re-find one's purpose in one's day to day grind is part of life's deal. I am questioning where and how I belong in my working-mom hood. The future is always exciting, even if I don't know where it lands just yet....
There is a reason why I am still here, as I currently am. And if that doesn't inspire, excite or light a fire in me, then nothing will.
