    I had to laugh at #106 because I’ve been spending more time on Pinterest than I have in a LONG time; just getting ready to set up another home. Love the baby’s room, Julie! Praying for you as you wait and trust.

      Oh man I always spend way too much time on Pinterest when I’m doing any decorating project, which works out fine as long as I take a break for awhile afterwards!

    I just bought Peace Like A River last night and am anxiously awaiting its arrival in the mail! Thank you, Amazon Spain for having good books available! Excited to know it’s a good one.
