every since i have become a mama (like since the 1st trimester) i have given up on late nights. a late night for me is like 11pm. i am okay with that and i value and covet my sleep time.
sometimes when allen and are hanging out with friends or family we stay up past 11 and i feel like a teenager again. its a good feeling, you know? like you are living on the edge?
wait a minute. did i just say that living on the edge was staying up until 11pm? holy cow how times have changed.
anyways, last night i got to working on molly's birthday cards. i decided this year to go the handmade route instead of the order from a website. i am so glad that i did! i had some reservations at first but i finally got all my ducks in a row and made it work. i am so proud of the way they turned out.
i stayed up last night until midnight! just me and maggie laying beside me watching me cut and stamp and glue and repeat.
i made a few extra cards for fun and i am planning on doing our christmas cards the same way. handmade is so awesome because you spend time thinking about the person and what they might like, how to arrange words and other details like that.
i am definitely going to make this a regular routine. it was some good therapy!
