i'm finally there.

29.1.15









so you know that relieved feeling you have after you've been on a long trip, and have finally made it back home and unpacked and started settling back into life?  when you can just take the time to sit on the couch and read and journal or casually browse Facebook without a purpose?  well, i'm finally there.  after eighteen months of living life halfway, i'm ready to completely unpack.  and it's a little scary, finally deciding that you are gonna dive in headfirst, even when you don't completely know what's gonna come.  but one thing i do know, is that He is going to do amazing things.  and he already has been, because these beautiful people have already made their way into my heart.

    Jana, your words and pictures are so inspiring. <3 Now I want to squeeze all those little darlings in the last photo. (!!!) "it's a little scary, finally deciding that you are gonna dive in headfirst" < I can so relate to that in this season of my life. It's a beautiful feeling, but so intimidating. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. (:
    xoxo, Abbie
