Thoughts for Friday

This past week has been so good to me. 

I have been able to spend so much time with family. 

My niece and nephews are beyond adorable. 

Seriously, they could not be cuter. 

I love seeing the mountains close by

and being able to see the sunset in the distance. 

Salt Lake City will always be my home. 

More on all my adventures this past week to come. 

For now, I want to share an article with you. 

My dad sent me and email with a link to THIS article. 

I found it really interesting. 

And very sad. 

Why is it that we have to compete with each other? 

Why do we feel like we have to measure up to everyone around us? 

Pinterest is seriously my best friend. 

I love the ideas that are on there and it seriously has become my recipe book. 

BUT

Don't let it be something that brings you down. 

This article is all about women in the world that feel like they aren't good enough. 

It is about women who stay up til 4 am obsessing over the perfect birthday cake for their child. 

It simply doesn't matter what everyone else does and how you feel you compare to what they do. 

Your child will love you whether they have a homemade Halloween costume or one that was bought at Smiths. 

Don't let other women's talents belittle your own talents. 

I highly recommend you read it. 

Be your best self. 

And don't let others get in the way of that.
