Maybe....
Maybe it is the bookcases, or the amazing table, the herringbone floors, the custom mantel, or the orange, but I am smitten with this room.

Quiet Time
Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go. Joshua 1:9
Thinking and praying for all of those who lost loved ones on this day 10 years ago.

Sometimes It Takes A Week
Hello blog friends! I promise I will be back regularly soon but I am learning that everything takes a lot longer when you have a two week old baby. For example, it took me a week (even with great help) to finally paint my nails which I had wanted to do since I bought this new polish....
I must say though, it was worth the wait, love the very deep teal.

A Little Dose of Happy
LOVE this room! The shelves, the table and chair combo, the light, the wall color, all of it. Every last thing.
It is also excites me because the pink cushions for my office chair are in and I can't wait to paint the chairs and show you the finished product.

Quiet Time
One of the best parts of being pregnant and now having a new born is the kindness of friends and strangers. I was blown away by all the well wishes I received from random people in stores, etc. while pregnant. While in Atlanta for Market a homeless man crossed the street and approached us. I assumed he was coming to ask for money but instead he came over to say congratulations and wish me the best of luck...and that was it, on he went. I have thought about that moment so many times since for two reasons- feeling bad for being assumptive about him and how his simple, kind words touched me so much. Now with a baby, support and generosity from friends and family is abundant and I am filled with gratitude. It makes you think what the world would be like if we were all just a little kinder to each other, not just during special times but on a small, simple everyday basis.
"Don’t just pretend to love others. Really love them. Hate what is wrong. Hold tightly to what is good. Love each other with genuine affection, and take delight in honoring each other. Never be lazy, but work hard and serve the Lord enthusiastically. Rejoice in our confident hope. Be patient in trouble, and keep on praying. When God’s people are in need, be ready to help them. Always be eager to practice hospitality." Romans 12:9-13

Around Here
One week ago we were welcoming Henry into the world, it is hard to believe it has already been 7 days! Since then we have been doing a little of this and little of that. Henry has been working on his tan (or decreasing it I should say)...
I loved everything that came in for clients, but I am most excited about this art/photography, can't wait to show you when it gets to its final destination- a law office fittingly.
We have been getting used to being a family of three, the best transition one could ask for...
And in case you were wondering (although probably not) the stumps have lost their bark thanks to some help from Patrick (more on that later).
Hopefully very soon this one will make its way to the nursery as a side table. As you can tell it still needs a lot of work. Thank you for all the advice from this post. We have followed every comment and researched where you said to go, so helpful!
Have a wonderful and safe holiday weekend!
Which we are happy to say is all cleared up. And while I am not working for a while that doesn't mean that the deliveries stop, they just come to the house instead of the office.
Which meant HBS experienced his first job with MSI, delegating the deliveries (please excuse the wet hair, etc. I was lucky to even be dressed!)...

I Would Like To Introduce You To Henry Strong
On August 25th we welcomed our son Henry Bihl Strong to the world. We have not stopped smiling since. The whole experience has been breathtaking and more than words could ever express.
Henry is Patrick's middle name and was his Grandfather's name. Bihl is my Mom's maiden name.
We have spent every day since just staring at this face...and thanking God for such a blessing.
Thank you all for all the e-mails, calls and comments. You don't know how much they have meant to me. I am so lucky to have such amazing and wonderful people in my life.
