Well, hello there stranger. Life has been all over the place here that I haven’t been able to get ahead on the blog. Both my littles have been off and on sick since just before Christmas. I took a couple weeks off while my husband was home on vacation, but then the New Year brought more sickness. I have even managed to catch the world’s worst sinus infection this week that staring at the computer screen kind of makes my brain hurt.

But I haven’t forgotten this space and all of you lovelies. My brain is still ticking away with ideas and my heart is still bursting with the desire to encourage you. I wish we could all just sit down and have coffee together and pour our hearts out face to face. But if that’s not possible, at least we have this space to bridge the gap.

I had to slow down just a little, take some time to breathe and take some time to take care of my babies. Most importantly, I had to take care of myself. I had to be okay with setting away the deadlines, relieving the pressure, and telling myself to take a break. Sometimes we all just need to slow down a little and relieve some of that unnecessary pressure on ourselves. Can I get an amen?

Hopefully we are inching back to things getting normal again. I can’t wait to be back here with all of you!
