Just a small and casual blog taking a light hearted look at relationships, the business of life, parenting and the art of juggling all the obligations and expectations that come with it while trying to maintain a sense of humor, hopefully a small sense of sanity and an awareness of ourselves and each other. We are Luke and Lana and we have 4 kids, 2 puppies and a small real estate business. This is our way of (hopefully) staying sane in an otherwise crazy life while we come to terms with the fact that we are no longer (that) young and carefree despite our minds constantly trying to convince us so! We are struggling our way through life with a smile on our faces and love in our hearts and hope that if you are struggling your way through life you will see that you are not alone, that life is tough, parenting is a struggle, work and business is ruthless and often times all encompassing, kids are character building (and at times soul destroying), and all of it is worth it and most importantly, that it is ok to not be ok. The struggle is part of the beauty of life for it builds us up, makes us stronger and helps us appreciate the good moments in our lives. We are all doing the best we can with what we have. Give yourself a break, smile at your inadequacies, laugh at your flaws, embrace your challenges, take a deep breath and know that it will all turn out ok! You need simply believe and keep pushing forward...
