As most of you know, I'm super passionate about intentional growth. After creating the post- The One Thing That Has Changed My Life- one of my blogging friends really liked this post because for her passion for this subject as well.

A Day In the Life With 5 Little Children
Since I created my last Day In the Life post, a lot has changed. Another little princess was added into our family. We moved locations a year and a half ago.
