POV you've been living at the Grand Canyon with your toddler and today is a normal day in your life. You wake up and forget where you are but the view outside the window reminds you. Around 6:00am your furry alarm goes off. You almost forgot you're expecting your third baby. Put some sunscreen on and a little makeup. You can't believe you look forward to getting up at 6 in the morning. It's the only time you get to yourself and the ritual of making your morning coffee feels a lot like self care. Bring the dogs outside so they don't wake anyone up and you can enjoy your coffee in peace. And even though it's Saturday you're still self employed. So you put together a to do list but it's not so bad. When you first started your business you used to work 16 hours a day but now maybe one or two does the trick. Starling runs off of your solar and you answer some email and send off a proposal. Make some breakfast outside and you try to do a little exercise. And before you know it you're getting your toddler ready to go on an adventure. You can't believe your luck and you find a white sand beach in the middle of the desert. You're a little self conscious of your changing body but no one else seems to care. So you enjoy the scenery and you try to go swimming in the Colorado River but it's absolutely freezing. So you chicken out but either way it feels good to cool down. Enjoy some snacks on the beach and you collect some sticks and rocks and your toddler doesn't seem to mind the cold. Sit back and enjoy the view and you can't believe your luck and before you know it it's supper time. Still haven't gotten used to cooking in your tiny kitchen but you're just grateful that it's so easy to clean. A simple classic is on the menu and you finish off your night with Netflix and a treat.
