In my quest to be my healthiest self by 40 (t-minus two months!) I’ve been paying more attention to my protein intake. As is every other 30-50 something woman in America, according to Instagram. Not because I’m trying to hit some magic number, but because I’ve noticed that when I eat more protein, I feel fuller, more energized, and way less snacky in the afternoons.
Happy Friday! It has been the most beautiful week here in Connecticut and I can feel the dread of winter slipping away day by day. My tennis group had our first outdoor lesson of the season this week and I was literally hopping up and down in delight the entire time. I love this time of year so much!
Lately, I’ve been having this weird feeling I can’t quite put my finger on. It’s not bad, per se, just different. A little untethered. A little... in between I guess. I'm not sure if it has to do with turning 40 or having kids that are no longer toddlers, but it's definitely crept up on me.
Every year when Mother’s Day rolls around, I find myself reflecting (even more than usual lol) on just how much moms really do every single day. From wiping noses (and butts), trying to give sage advice when we often have no idea what we're doing ourselves, or managing to keep everything running smoothly (even when we're running on empty).
