Bible Study, Buttercream, and Letting My Toddler Do My Makeup

Life lately has included studying the book of Nehemiah, baking 11 dozen wedding cookies, getting acupuncture, reading, puddle jumping, church, the trampoline park, ice cream… and letting my three-year-old do my makeup. 😂 It was one of those weeks that felt wonderfully full of both ordinary and memorable moments.

Today, I have nothing to do. That makes me so happy. It’s snowing super hard in Pittsburgh right now and my little sister is really sick. I plan on hanging out with her and my brother all day and then heading into church tonight. Sounds like a perfect day to me!

What are you up to today?
