• “Try to be a rainbow in someone else's cloud.” Maya Angelou I started this page when I was walking through our journey to grow our family... simply put, it was a brutal season... I desperately needed to be reminded of the “beautiful moments” of the everyday, while my heart felt like it was breaking. It felt so good to share these moments and to share my journey... somehow, in opening up about it all, my heart began to heal and it became easier and easier to see the “beautiful moments, of the everyday.” Fast forward a year and surprise!!!! We became parents to our miracle through adoption, Norah Kay... it became even more important to me to share, to spread beauty and to continue to “do life” with all of you. So, thank you for following along and for being such a gift. You’re all the loveliest and I feel truly blessed by each of you. Thank you for being such a “rainbow” to me in so many ways! #cottagekitchen #farmhousekitchen #cottagestyle #cottageandfarm #cottageandbungalows #countrylifemagazine #countryliving #woodcountertop #subwaytile #vintage #chippy #simplycozynest #simplycozycharm

  • I spent the afternoon making Strawberry Jam and memories. Im trying to dial down the sap tonight, friends, I really am... but I keep having these out of body moments, when I realize, I get to be her mom... as tired as I can be, or as long as a day can run... it still shocks me, that I get to live this life... All the summer things, all the memories, all the beautiful moments... well, it all makes it impossible for me to dial the sap down at all... so, I hope you enjoy my sticky post 😉 (feel like I’m taking this illustration too far...) #strawberryjam #summermemories #sappypost #farmhousesink #sink #strawberryseason #mondaymoments

  • MI was showing off today and we took full advantage of all it had to offer. We spent the afternoon outside and my heart is just so full... it wasn’t long ago I was praying for these days and fearing that they would never be... but I’ll be honest, I had to work today, to be present... anxiety kept knocking at my door and fear keeps creeping in... it’s okay if the beautiful moments have to be fought for... they’re worth it! #daughter #summertimefun #familytime #familylife

  • Here’s the thing about home design, the beauty truly is in the eye of the beholder... what looks amazing to me, may be too much for you... I hang my plates on my walls (for heavens sake) !!! Don’t even get me started on my love for baskets... What feels like home, to you, friend? What makes you want to put your feet up after a long day and settle in? Maybe it’s oak cabinets, and cherry wood floors... it may be granite and bold paint colors... or maybe you’ve got a thing for florals... the important thing to remember is, that it isn’t about what’s in style... style is a fickle friend that changes on the hour... no, instead ask yourself, what do you want to come home to each day? Always remember your creating a space for you and yours to thrive in... that’s what matters. Happy Monday! #famrhousekitchen #woodfloors #chippy #vintagestyle #cottagestyledecor #cottagestylehome #cottagestylelove #cottageandbungalows #countryhome #countryhomemagazine

  • I didn’t know how much more I’d love him ... watching him paint her nails, brush her hair, pick out her outfits, play tea with her... it melts my heart. He shows up for her everyday, he delights in her and treasures all the things about her... his love for her has pushed him to grow and it’s been a beautiful process to watch... he’s our rock, our bug killer, our antique mover, and so much more! We love you, Guy! Love, Your Girls @fitzgeraldsamericanlifestyle
