Refreshed
Feeeling a little better about the world today. My husband was kind enough to take Elliot away for the night to my in-laws cottage. I made some quick curtains for the nursery, did some baby-proofing, and now am trying to work up the energy for some cleaning before they return. Nothing like a little decorating to cheer a girl up. Thanks for all of the kind words.
Lovely room x

Your nursery looks calm and beautiful - think I will go rearrange furniture - I'm inspired! I'm sorry you have been feeling so sad lately. We all have crumby moments as mother's - some days are really draining. It will pass!

Your curtains are lovely and you are in my thoughts. I'm guessing your mama is standing right next to you, whispering you words of encouragement and stroking your hair.

Your kids are so lucky to have an inspiring mom who makes such beautiful things. Take care of yourself at this late stage of your pregnancy. Rest up, do things for *you* and renew your energy for the big day.
