Blissfully Burton: life

Friday, August 3

A few favorites...

I feel really bogged down lately. There's just so much hate and negativity going on right now. So much judging, so much intolerance. It's got me going into a little hole. A hole where I will pray that Harper never has to feel. But, unless the second coming comes soon, she's going to have to know about it all or be exposed to some types of this. So Brian and I made a pact. We decided that we will not let anything or anyone force negativity and hate while we are around her. I'm taking a break from FB for a while to just get away from the petty-ness that has come. I want to show Harper love and joy and thankfulness. I'm far from perfect, but she's still so innocent. I have lots of 'wars' going on in my head right now, but instead of writing or talking them all out, I'm going to focus on what I can do. I'm going to pray for me to show grace, for me to be positive, and for me to continue doing what I need to to keep my daughter safe from this ridiculous hate.

Here's a few pics from the last 2 weeks that make my heart happy...

I'm sure gonna miss all this extra time I've gotten with Harper this summer!
