Yes!!! Love this: “I find myself trying to absorb the newness of my surroundings at the very same time I am trying to normalize them.” Such a real tension that you captured so well. Reminds me of new motherhood, falling in love, and countless other everyday, life changing happenings.
Jenn- Thanks for sharing this piece. Especially your openness in living in a place and writing in a season of life you didn't expect. Hope you're well this week? Cheers, -Thalia
I really enjoyed reading this, Jenna! I feel like I’m always trying to process past experiences and also capture current experiences, and it feels like a never-ending wheel sometimes.

This is beautiful, friend. I love hearing how you're processing the newness (and the normal) in your daily life and your writing.
Newness and normal = so much of both! ❤️
So good to get a glimpse into your real time living and how Kansas will continue to teach you.
Thank you, Kim. Home is always a teacher--thanks for that reminder.

I’m glad to know I’m not alone, though it is a dilemma! Thanks for this, Ruth.
