overwhelmed

i am e-x-h-a-u-s-t-e-d. there's a lot of wild in both my personal and professional life right now, and i'm just flat overwhelmed in lots of ways. but.

my students make me laugh and melt.

palo altan spring is about the loveliest thing ever.

weekly homemade pizza keeps me going.

there has consistently been fresh flowers in my kitchen. 

i spent saturday half at the temple half in the city.

coldplay's music exists.

my sunday walk at the stanford dish was outrageously pretty.

i have great friends, who are forgiving when i am such an absent friend.

scriptures in the morning make my heart light.

i'm learning an insane amount.

my parents really love me and care about me a lot.

teaching animal farm is really fun.

my body and mind are healthy and strong.

there is light in all of my students' eyes.

tomorrow afternoon i'm on my way to meet my new niece, miracle baby shelby grace. 

beauty and brightness are everywhere.
