STRAWBERRY CHEESECAKE CUPCAKES

Edit
Let me say first that it feels like forever. It’s like any long term relationship, I think. In one way, it’s hard to think back to your life without that person/animal/thing, and at the same time, life seems to be moving at warp speed.
My blog birthday (blogiversary if you prefer), is something that I usually kind of forget about until it’s right here, or last week. Mostly because a good chunk of my time is spent running around like a crazy person.
At the beginning of the year, my #1 goal or resolution was to just slow down and take a breath. I was going to work less, play with my kids more, make new friends and reconnect with old ones. I had big, wonderful plans.
And I’m still struggling to change. I’m struggling to make my kids a priority and not view them as an obstacle between me and my to-do list. I’m still struggling to close the computer and turn off my phone.
How is that for a depressing birthday speech? Let me change gears.
The reason it’s so hard for me to let go of things is because I feel so, so insanely lucky to be here. There are a lot of parts of this job that are not fun, but I get to cook, in my home, and it’s my day job. I can make my schedule however I want, and work whenever I want, and hug my kids and tuck them into bed.
