Sons are a heritage from the Lord, children a reward from him.  Like arrows in the hands of a warrior are sons born in one's youth.  Blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them.  Psalm 127:3-4

Workin'

My mom came and picked up my daughter this morning...
My husband is sleeping after working the night shift...
I have a new office area in our finally (almost) finished basement...
Hot raspberry tea...
David Crowder Band gracing my speakers...


All of those things make for pretty awesome work vibes. :)

The plan was to go straight to the office once my daughter left, but I quickly decided that feeling fresh and put together sounded appealing.  So instead of working with a greasy face, rat's nest hair, and in my stretchy pants, I showered and (kind of) fixed my hair and slapped on some makeup, and some bling.  I may still have stretchy pants and house shoes on, but I'm 33 weeks pregnant. Enough said. :)

No... I'll just make a batch of blondies and almost make myself sick on the four large finger-full bites of dough.  Nothin' but common sense around here I tell ya.
