I used to think a quiet morning and the bustle of kids were mutually exclusive.

And by definition, they kind of are.

How then, does one have a peaceful morning watching the beautiful sunrise?

Get up earlier? Tried that. Kids, sensing a disturbance in the force, get up that much earlier, too.

👉 Invite the kids in & temporarily suspend-or redefine-notions of peace & quiet.

With the kids piled on my lap, in the midst of the myriad of "can you warm up my feet" "give me some space" "I want to sit by the baby" "stop pulling my hair" and a suspicious cough, we pause for beauty.

Here I am, grateful that the enjoyment of God's handiwork and the optimal environment are not mutually exclusive.

One day I'll get to watch the sunrise in silence with only a hot cup of tea to keep me company.

& it just might break my heart.

I tried to create an aesthetic video with the help of AI.

I told AI my mission and what I’m about, like leading with delight, joy in motherhood, faith, and intentional living.

Then I told it to create a storyboard for a 5 minute ✨aesthetic✨ video.

It gave some… interesting… things, some more realistic than others. I followed what I could but still tried hard to create a good video. (Like, it's weird to film myself smiling at my family sleeping peacefully lol.) Check it out! Stick around to see the behind the scenes of how I filmed it.

TAKE AWAY

Living an ✨aesthetic✨ life sure is a lot of work. I enjoy watching those kinds of videos as well as making them but it’s important to remember that they are a highlight reel. People’s lives don’t look like that (or maybe they do!) but mine sure doesn’t.

I’m here to remind you that a lot of effort goes into making something look effortless 🙂
