I almost forgot... That this is the whole point. I spend my days immersed in the world of aesthetics. Not because I'm superficial or obsessed with perfectly designed spaces—far from it. It’s my job to focus on aesthetics. My work revolves around capturing the beauty of products, like photographing a duvet in a way that makes you, the reader, imagine it perfectly in your own home. I didn’t create this concept, nor do I believe it’s manipulative. Instead, I sleep well knowing that I contribute to presenting items in a way that inspires. Even better, I genuinely love what I do. As a home and lifestyle blogger, I enjoy the flexibility of my work—it allows me to be here, at home, with this little guy. He constantly reminds me of what truly matters. Aesthetics mean nothing to him—he couldn’t care less if his toys are color-coordinated or if his playroom is meticulously organized. What matters to him is joy—laughing without restraint, feeling loved, having fun, and simply being a kid. Children have a unique way of teaching us invaluable lessons, untainted by modern conventions or societal expectations. Their perspectives are pure and unfiltered—they live fully in the moment, reacting authentically and naturally gravitating toward joy. Perhaps the greatest lesson they offer is this: being alive isn’t about appearances or grand achievements; it’s found in the simplicity of each moment. Happiness, they remind us, isn’t just a part of life—it’s the very essence of it. They remind us, just when we’re about to forget, that this is the whole point. #motherhood
