Share five things you’re good at.
Writing
I’ve always been passionate about words, but I have the writer’s curse of being absolutely terrible at speaking. But combining letters to create sounds and sentences? It feels like art.
Cooking
My favorite thing is to sit down to wholesome comfort food with my favorite people, which means that I’ve put in the effort to be able to prepare food that makes the moment perfect. Presentation, on the other hand, is completely different skill, and I’m not about to go adding sprigs of parsley any time soon.
Sewing
I call it my sanity hobby! I love the way the fabric feels in my fingers, and the hum of my machine as it stitches.
Child Care
While I’m not going to claim perfection, I have put in a lot of time practicing patience, and I try my best to empathize. When it comes to children, the love and care you put into them is reciprocated (though not always in obvious ways), and that means the world to me.
Moving Forward
I feel a little ridiculous for putting that one down, but after the year I’ve had, I think I ought to acknowledge how much strength it’s taken to get out of bed and keep breathing, every single day.
