45 Random Facts About Me

Lately, I’ve seen a lot of new faces come across my blog and my Instagram, so I thought I would post something a little different to welcome all of you new beauties to the LNL family. 🙂 I’m SO happy that you are here and enjoy following along with my blog, and I hope that you’ll leave a comment here or on IG (or even shoot me a DM), so that we can build this relationship and get to know each other even better!

I’ve been feeling so blessed lately by being able to finally live out my dream and my passion, and there’s no way I would be anywhere close to where I am today without YOUR love and support along the way. Late last night when I was finishing some work before bed, I hopped onto IG real quick and realized that I had officially hit 18K followers. Like seriously, you guys?! You rock my world. I told my hubby, “I mean, little ole me from a small town in Tennessee … Really???” I still pinch myself every day because I can’t believe that I get to call this my job and get to do what I am so passionate about every day. Now, is it easy? Absolutely not. Is life all about how many followers you have on social media? HECK NO!! Am I one of those huge bloggers making millions? Nope. Do I hope to be there one day? Well, of course.

The point is, this blogging journey has absolutely taught me so much that I never even knew about myself, and I’ve had to work literally day in and day out busting my you know what to get it all going in the right direction (finally). I am so happy and relieved to say that I’m proud of where this blog is today and where it is going (God willing). All that to say, NONE of this would be possible without you and the Lord on my side, so I just want to share with you my extreme gratitude and love! Whether you are new around here or you have been one of my biggest supporters since the very beginning, I just want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart, and tonight, I want to share a few random facts about myself that you may not know about me. I’m hoping that this will help you connect with all things love ‘n’ labels on a more personal level because after all, y’all are my babes and some of my very best friends. XO

Best life advice:

Always be kind. You never know what others are going through in life.

You never know another person’s story or what they go home to every night, so be kind, support them, include them, lift them up. You never know when you’ll be the only light in a person’s day!

That’s all for now, but I’m thinking about starting an FAQ Friday series soon where you all could send in any questions that you have and I’ll answer them every Friday. Let me know if this is something you all would like to see here on LNL!

xo, P
