I've been wanting a floral infinity scarf and finally found some fabric this weekend and made one!
Now if only I could find a fabric with elephants on it.
It always takes me a few days to get used to my new hair, but I think I am starting to like the darker color.
Unfortunately this wind makes it look like a slight mess.
I can't even wait to see you on Thursday. Over three months is far too long.
The other day you sent me this picture with this text:
"Just getting Lena a snack and turn around and this is what I find.
Travis why are you naked?
'It seemed like a good idea.'"
and I honestly have looked at it and laughed about it everyday since.
(Travis - I know that seeing this picture now will make you laugh and only think more highly off yourself. Agreed. But by the time it doesn't, I promise I'll take it down!)
I can't wait to give you these shoes that I found at Target for $4.50. Now you, me and Lauren-in-law will be matching.
Last week you told me that you told one of your clients about what I am going through during this infertility journey and how it has made me a more beautiful person, and you said you were able to use my story to encourage someone else.
Thank you for saying that. For reminding me that God is using me. For reminding me that He will continue to use this struggle to grow me and others too.
and for reminding me how blessed I am to have a sister who loves me, prayers for and encourages me.
I love you Lauren and have the biggest hug waiting for you, Travis and Lena Thursday afternoon!
Love,

I love the scarf, great job! Travis is too cute. :) Gotta love those little booty pictures, he'll be happy to have those when he's a teenager.
This is so nice! Someone reminded me the other day that everything we say and everything we do can be judged by anybody so we should try our best to be a great testimony. You definitely remind me of that because even though you're struggling, God is turning your mess into a message and your test into a testimony:)
