The way of beauty.

I spent most of the day in bed. I was tired. I only got up at 3pm to shower. I was having a meh day. After my shower I was playing music in my room while getting dressed. I then decided to finally unpack my bags and pack my clothes into the wardrobe. As I was putting my empty suitcase away I caught my three year old niece peeping into my room.

I told her she could come in. I was playing music from my boyfriend playlist. My niece played with my speaker for about 3 mins then in her sweet, little voice said, “please play baby shark?” LOL I looked at her and realized she really didn’t take me seriously. 😂😂😂 Not in a bad way. I just felt like in that moment I was being reminded to stop taking myself so seriously.

So we played baby shark. I smiled and laughed for the first time today and in that moment I realized I was smack dab in the middle of the way of beauty. She was surprised to see the wardrobe that’s been mostly empty for as long as they’ve lived in this house suddenly so full with my stuff. She was so fascinated she took me to her and her sister’s room to show me her wardrobe as well. You’d swear I’d never been in their room. She showed me her shoes and dresses just like mine in my wardrobe.

It was so innocent and so cute. My nieces are really one of my ways of beauty right now. I am so grateful I get to recalibrate in the presence of so much beauty. ♥️
