I walked into the kitchen tonight, getting home after the biggest boy’s basketball game, and was caught by what I saw before me –
The vignette I had originally created of bits and pieces of things I love had been added to here and there, showing more of a picture of my life. Framed words that inspire, whimsical beauty from a local artist, a creation from a girl who loves her dad fiercely, memories in a jar, sunshine in a bowl, gifts brought back from a land far away, and books overflowing. And dinosaurs, of course (doesn’t everyone use dinosaurs in their decorating?).
It’s not anything that will ever appear in a style magazine, but it’s my life today, perfectly imperfect.
I love it Ali, like you
