The little things
A fellow blogger has a blog titled “the pauses in between”. It’s a gorgeous blog, I highly recommend it ☺️. We Filo’s gotta hype each other up, huh? Anyway. What I wanted to write about was about the small moments in life – the ones in between all the big moments, because they’re the ones…
