Recently I’ve been overwhelmed by an outpouring of love and kindness from different people: family, friends, and even strangers! In the midst of a lot of stress and anxiety, these little bits of encouragement and kindness have meant the world to me and have been an overwhelming reminder that God is soooo good to me.

My littlest bridesmaid is still in HS, and lives far away in Colorado, so she and her mom picked me up a little gift to encourage me - a Starbucks gift card, a cute VS tank, and a note telling me to “take a deep breath” and relax from all of the stress of school and wedding planning… it was the sweetest and most unexpected gift, and so perfectly timed.

I’ve mentioned the sweet USPS mail carriers that have helped me out (and now know me by name, haha). I stopped by the post office earlier today to buy stamps for the our invites - and asked about hand canceling. The sweet lady at the window told me to just bring my invitations and that I could hand cancel them there by myself! SO NICE! I’ve actually never experienced such awesome service from USPS workers before, so I’ve been extremely and quite pleasantly surprised.

And most recently, my SoCal shower was this past weekend! I was overwhelmed yet again with all of the love and hard work from my awesome bridesmaids, especially Sister Ramen and Cousin Fishcake (she decided that she wanted to be something tasty you would eat with ramen, haha)! They spent COUNTLESS hours planning and putting together the BEST SHOWER EVERRRRRRRRRRRRR… and then spent the rest of the weekend helping me put together some of our invites. I am SO BLESSED.

I can’t wait to share with you all the details about my shower; this week is a little hectic with my last regular exam and the start of our final proficiencies, so my apologies ahead of time for the light posting this week…

What unexpected sweetness have you encountered recently?
