Thanks for the kind comments on my various mamahood ramblings this week. This gig gets a smidge easier each day. Partly because I am slowing getting better at managing, but mostly because Ellerie is growing into a real person. We had a near crawling experience and she pulled to stand this week. Both awesome, but hardly compare to the constant grins and running life commentary she shares with me. This child of mine is going to be a talker.
In other news, my mom is coming into town this weekend to cuddle Ellerie and help me tear through my to-do list. I joked with some girlfriends last weekend that there is no MAKE29 without my parents. Those two keep me going and I am so grateful for their help when they come visit. When I was brainstorming last fall about how to grow my business and keep myself sane, Paul and I talked about how doing things in batches might really be the way to go (that was the first seedling of an idea that became MAKE29). It's a lot of work at one time followed by a decent chunk of rest. Short period of intense work. Longer period of rest. Work. Rest. If I'm able to get help for the work parts (and I pretty much arrange my life and schedule so I can), everyone wins.
The gold ink photos above are a small peek at a future month's project (remember, staying "ahead" in business is how I stay sane in "life") but an official peek of March's project will go out to newsletter subscribers (sign up here) early next week.
Good stuff. VERY GOOD STUFF.
Have an excellent weekend and truly, thank you.
