Loved, loved, loved seeing and hearing your voice on the video from the previous post!!! Sometimes I wonder if we learn more from the journey rather than the destination...I think, in my life, this is what God wants me to learn! Love your #301...it is hard to remember to extend grace to ourselves...Grateful that God places people in our lives to remind us just that!
Blessings and joy, Bekah!!

Ahhhh Karen!! Always so good to hear from you!

I think you have it exactly right on the journey/destination thing. I plunge ahead in anticipation of the end, but the middle seems to be where all the good stuff hides!

I'm TERRIBLE at extending grace to myself. I demand so much more of myself than I do of others. I'm thankful I have friends who keep me accountable on that one.

Big hugs to you!!!! :)

I like the one about vacation dates! PLAN PLAN PLAN! (I know there are more exciting places to vacation than N. IL, but we do have some nice, cheap accommodations here!) :)
