Happy Birthday, Adorable Mess!

Welcome!
Today marks the beginning of a new adventure for me.  One that I have been dreaming about and hoping for for quite some time...starting a blog.  I guess you could say that it started with a deep addiction to Pinterest, or maybe a love of creating and decorating my own space, but ultimately it comes down to the opportunity to share my love of life and the joy of living that I have with others around me.  Thus, today marks the birthday of The Adorable Mess and the many adventures that it may entail.  

So, why the title, Adorable Mess?  Well, it's simple.  Life is a mess, some more than others, but most of us are trying to make the most of the life that we have been blessed with.  My life has felt like it has been a mess since I began teaching and it has taken every ounce of my energy to learn to live with the "mess" that has become my everyday.  Whether it is small messy second graders in my classroom, the fact that I can't keep my car clean for the life of me because I practically live in it or the random mishaps of my day...there is always something beautiful to be found in those moments.  This blog is dedicated to sharing those moments of my life and to remind those who read that in the midst of a messy, chaotic life there is always joy and beauty to be found.  

Happy Reading!
