This stage of motherhood is quickly becoming my fa This stage of motherhood is quickly becoming my favorite. She’s the bestie that can have a chat with me, give me a hug when she knows mommy needs it, and paint me the most beautiful abstract piece of art and hang it with pride on our refrigerator. 

God knew that I was going to need this little girl in a way I couldn’t even comprehend. Feeling forever blessed and grateful for her and all our memories we continue to make together 🤍

Mamas, raise your hand if you’re still trying to f Mamas, raise your hand if you’re still trying to find your rhythm. 

I had my daughter three years ago (wow, time is flying) and I’d be lying if I said these last few years have been easy. Becoming a mother rearranged everything I thought I knew about myself, and I’m slowly getting to know this new version of me. The one learning to find her balance, her peace, and her joy in this season of life.

Because we all know: we blink, and the moment’s already behind us.

Around here, we take birthdays very serious. It’s Around here, we take birthdays very serious. It’s not always about doing the most, but it’s about celebrating another trip around the sun, another year of making memories, another year to love on the people that we love the most. And for that, I say, hallelujah and thank you God!

✨Happy Birthday to my sweet little baby! ✨ I can ✨Happy Birthday to my sweet little baby! ✨ 

I cannot believe how much joy, love and laughter she’s brought to our world and our lives. Her love, empathy, creativity and personality make her such a special little girl to her Dad and I. 

We have enjoyed watching her grow and learn so much about the world around her. I hope she always remembers these little moments for her birthday and always remembers how much she is loved and cared for. Happy 3rd Birthday, my sweet Gisele, please stop growing up so fast, baby! 🤍
