Posted: July 2 — Mood: Breezy-brained + full of pink lemonade

Today was one of those golden hour days where everything feels kinda floaty and safe 🌤️

Jax surprised me this morning with a packed picnic basket (with my favs: strawberry sandwiches, marshmallow snacks, and pink lemonade in a glass bottle 🥺💖). He said, “C’mon, babydoll, let’s chase some sunshine,” and I just MELTED. Like... how is he real??? 😭

We went to the little park by the library — y’know, the one with the squeaky swings and rainbow slide? I took off my shoes and walked through the grass and literally pretended I was in a movie. 🌾🎬

🎈 Park Highlights:

I laid on the picnic blanket and doodled clouds in my notebook ☁️

Jax let me braid a friendship bracelet for him while he read (yes, he wore it!!!) 🧵

We shared a pack of gummy worms and tried to guess the colors with our eyes closed 🍬

The wind kept tugging my pigtails and I giggled SO hard 🐰💨

He wiped a smudge of chocolate off my cheek and said, “My messy lil’ masterpiece.” 😳🫶

I also brought my CD player and listened to my Chill Girl Glow-Up mix while I journaled under a tree 🍃🎧

It felt like summer break in a dream diary. And when I got a lil overstimulated and quiet, Jax just wrapped his jacket around my shoulders and sat close without talking. It was perfect.

💡 Today’s Little Reminder:

You’re allowed to take up quiet space. Softness isn’t laziness. Being little doesn’t make you weak — it just makes your magic visible 💗
