Magic I Saw this Week: Lots of magic this week. Nathaniel with his crazy hair day. Taking a day at home and a day in the city. Having David back in town finally. Getting to see him and his elementary school friends all back together was really magical. Getting to spend a small amount of my morning with my friend who was kind enough to drive me was really really magical. We were supposed to have a lot of rain this week but it magically was only a little bit, which also made my week much better.
Magic I Made this Week: I went climbing with Jake on Thursday before work again. We took a walk around the pond nearby which always feels magical and happy for me and saw a teeny tiny cat this time which was bonus. I made sure to do a lot of hugging with my kids and my husband. Nathaniel was at a sleep over one night so we had a date night in the city which was also magical.
Magic of Me that I explored Week: I did some more journaling this week and read one book on anxiety.. still slowly moving forward.
