I have decided to make it a tradition to share my favorite blog posts with you at the end of each year. Last year, I shared my favorite posts of 2017. In 2016, I walked you all down memory lane with my Through the Years post. 

This year, my blog and my Instagram, especially, continued transforming. My Instagram has brought me greater income than I ever thought it would. In fact, it actually helped financially support our family during my maternity leave. My community also helped to sustain my blog while I was on leave by offering guests posts for my Maternity Leave Guest Series.

Needless to say, the love and support has been wonderful. It has been a year full of ups and downs, high highs (the birth of our second son) and low lows (the passing of my younger cousin). This space helped me in more ways than I could precisely articulate. 

So, thank you. For reading, commenting, sharing, and liking my posts. I know time is precious so the fact that you take time out of your day to come here or visit my Instagram means a lot to me.

Without further ado, here are my favorite posts of 2018:
