nesting

1.18.10


I’ve been crazy nesting this weekend—cleaning out closets, going through bins of children’s clothes, looking through boxes that hadn’t been touched in a while. I came across this letter. I don’t remember what warranted the sorry note–sounds like I lost some ring that my mom let me wear? I just thought it was pretty funny how I made check boxes (I remember doing these a lot on notes). And, I appreciated my mom’s well thought out answer.

Praying there is a reason for my nesting this week…

    Praying for you today and this week, that your Lydia’s precious face will be revealed to you! I love the “check-boxes” you used with your note to your Mom! What a great little memory!

    Oh my goodness, Kelly! This note you found is just priceless! What a wonderful keepsake that touches back on your very own childhood lessons, and the nurturing wisdom and tenderness from a very loving mom! You are blessed! <>< And I know ALL about the nesting. Working on that one myself! ;) God bless, dear friend!

    This is adorable! I love it…and there is so much of your personality in this. You were the interviewer even at such a young age!

    This note is priceless Kelly!

Hello

I overthink everything. This blog is a prime example. Make yourself a cup of coffee and sit down for a read. Actually, make that a pot of coffee. There’s a lot of overthinking here.
