April Round-Up | Free Beauty Found on the Internet

I am constantly in awe of the beauty that is all around me if I have my eyes open to it.

Crazy Road To Health {Repost}

{original post May 19, 2010} It was eight years ago. I was three months pregnant with our second child. My mom was visiting and giving me a head rub…which she always does when she visits me (don’t you just love mamas). I was extremely tired and talking to both Kelly and my mom.
