it's gonna be ok & some answers for you

 (found)

caroline headed up to south carolina this morning for four days of camp.

bless her heart,

i dropped her off this morning at church, assuming she'd hook up with her cabin mates,

only to find that many of them were riding up in a vehicle different

from the church bus.

she was trying so hard not to cry.

thankfully i ran into a friend of mine

who incidentally is doing a fantastic job battling breast cancer

looks great & has a contagiously positive outlook.

( YAY KAREN!)

her precious daughter was so sweet when my girlfriend asked if she'd ride up with caroline.

thank the lord for sweet girls

with big smiles

who make others feel loved.

honestly, i'm probably more worried about caroline 

who's only 3 hours away, for four days

than emi who will  hop on a plane

to Peru in 6 days for three weeks!

(kidding. sort of)

 

but it's all gonna be ok.

for both of them.

i know this.

i love it when i post & you guys come back with loads of questions.

hopefully i will remember everything you asked.

1. the pink polish smk wore at graduation is an american eagle color.

i looked on line & couldn't find it anywhere.

there isn't a name on the bottle either.

2. the blush colored blouse i had on a few posts ago is from Saks.

i think you can now find it at Off 5th.

3. the pink rope handled canvas laundry totes are cynthia rowley.

i looked on line & wasn't able to find them at other locations

but HomeGoods had 3 sizes also in blue. super cute!

 4. the flower print is actually a poster from hobby lobby.

how 'bout that for fine art?

5. the moss covered monogram was actually a gift

however i found one on her etsy shop which is full of great creations.

6. i just finished "On Folly Beach"

(the first book i read on my kindle)

loved it!

if i had allowed myself more than 12 minutes per night to read

before sacking out, i would have finished in a couple of sittings.

i thought it was that good.

sorry most of these pics were from previous posts

& are all pixely and blurry

(i have no idea what's up)

but i thought it would be easier for those who had emailed etc with questions.

and

it was interesting for me to read that so many of ya'll had also heard

the "just you wait" comments many times too

& how that had made you feel deflated.

while i'm a realist

i always want to be an encourager 

especially to younger moms.
