To Be Honest..

A few nights ago I could not fall asleep. I sent this to my dear friend...hoping to unravel a few of the many thoughts circling through my mind.


"2:30am and I still can't fall asleep.

To be honest? I keep building my bakery in my mind.
What it will look like, what pastries I'll make.
How I'll display breads and cakes and pies.
If I will have espresso drinks and syrups and milkshakes.
What colors I'll use on the walls and what I will see when I look out my windows.
How I'll tie my apron on when I'm pregnant with my first child, and how I'll carry him in a sling on my back while I knead dough and dust the flour off my hands.
How I'll come home and greet my husband with a kiss and love how he'll take a deep breath and smell the scent of cookies and pies lingering in my hair.
How happy we will be....how much we will love Christ.


This is why I can't fall asleep.
But I'm not complaining. Never would I tell these dreams and thoughts to leave me be."




Things I'm Thankful For:



#14. Family members who lend me their cars while mine is still "out of order".




#15. That His dreams will become my dreams...and will come true. 'Cause He promised.
