About

Hi! I’m Lakia.

It all started when I said “I do” to my favorite friend. When we set out on this thing called marriage, we had big dreams. Somewhere in the middle of it all, dreams can begin to fade into the background of diaper changes, sleep deprivation, and the constant grate and grind of routine. I’m naturally a sharer, so it’s only natural that I share some of my story and lessons learned with you, my readers.

This is a blog where I hope to give you a glimpse of what reclaiming dreams looks like. I believe that half the battle is recognizing when those dreams have become a reality right before your very eyes. The other half is maintaining an ‘attitude of gratitude’ when our realities contain the inevitable and unglamorous—the mundane.

If we keep our eyes open and our hearts grateful, I think we will find that there is a lot more to our days than drudgery and that many of the things we have wanted our whole lives, we already have (or nearly have).

So grab your favorite mug of (decaf…wait, what?) coffee and let’s have a chat, shall we? I hope you stay a while and come back. Often.

XO,

Lakia
