Weary traveler...mundane faithfulness

After a flurry of summertime travels...barely unpacking in time to repack...the actual, looonnnngggg roads of driving...I'm SO tired.  I was more than slightly giddy to discover that the next overnight trip I have to take is at Christmastime.  Hooray!

There's probably something wrong with me.  Don't worry, I'm aware of this.  I need to learn to relax and enjoy the ride more...  Somehow learn to enjoy the disorganization more.  I need to plan relaxing things more.  Too uptight, probably.

Yes, it's good to be home.  The books, cupboards, drawers, clothes...everything is getting hauled out and sorted.  The calendar for the school year is getting filled out and sorted too.  The approaching rhythm of the mundane is marching back into line.

Maybe I just do better with mundane faithfulness.

Baby Avacado!

I made it!  I got the baby avocado and baby quilt made before the baby shower!  Phew! 

The beautiful mama-to-be loved it...squealed with glee.  I'm so happy!

Everybody tells me I could sell these but I just think it might take the joy out of it for me.  There's something super special about getting to know people and then making something special...just for them...one of a kind!
