I've been seriously struggling with burnout recently and no amount of rest seemed to be helping. It got so bad that I completely spaced when my daughters spring recital was. Ok let me tell you the story.

My daughter had told me several times that it was on the 18th. When the day finally came around she once again reminded me of the date of her recital. Now to make this even worse is the fact that my birthday is today April 19th. Yes I know the 18th comes before the 19th but I told her that it wasn't till next week....but somehow I still knew that my birthday was the next day.

So ya, I didn't make it there in person but thankfully an email from the school reminded me in time to catch the live stream.

My guilt for this mishap is what led me to the creation of the image to this post because I wanted to make something special for her. This was the third draft. I showed my daughter the first one and she said it would be really pretty if it was two unicorns sharing magic (horns almost touching) and shaped like a heart. When I started the new design my daughter kept telling me it doesn't have to be perfect but this design was a special one. I wanted to make sure the finished product would be something she would absolutely love. 

Still burnt out but in trying my best to rest and recover. ❤️ 🫂 ❤️
