THE MYSTERY OF DISAPPEARING SOCKS One of the things I think I’d want for God to play back for me when I get to Heaven is: what the heck happens to all the socks?!?! Nothing could be more mysterious – and no matter how many pairs I buy and how well I try to take care of them, they…

I haven’t written anything in the past 3 months because I’ve been feeling so pap :/. We’re expecting another sweet little bundle of joy (whoop whoop!!) but this has been the worst first trimester out of all three! The fatigue and the nausea had me down pretty much everyday, and it didn’t help that I’m a stay/work at home mom…
