No sleep, and loving it.

Okay, I know that I'm uber-sappy, and it doesn't take much to make me cry, but I got up and rocked my baby in the rocking chair for over an hour tonight and loved every second of it. 
I mean, I cried the whole time.
 Granted-
 it was three in the morning, and I haven't had a full night sleep in over a year, but I can honestly say, that these were tears of gratitude. What a privilege it is to have moments like this one, and I can pick him up and basically rock him whenever I want. 

Sometimes when I get lost in things like Pintrest or the mall,  I can pine away for things that can beautify my surroundings... "If only" I had the re$ources for this or that. Many times working at home means you trade in your well-tailored preferences for Goodwill practicality. And that's okay. In fact, it's better than okay; when it comes right down to it, I wouldn't trade my time as a housewife and mom for all the Pottery Barn rooms in the world. Because when it comes to beauty, it doesn't get any better than this! Bless God! James 1:17
