current state of affairs

as i mentioned in the previous post, we are VERY busy around these parts. if keeping a mischievous toddler out of trouble isn't enough, i'm the manger of this household and the chores don't wait. somewhere in between the tasks you'll find me planning for Relief Society activities, running our small vinyl lettering business, running various errands for my hard-working hubby, and still finding time to play with friends or reading a good book. thus the reason i found it imperative to record our "current state of affairs" for the future when i may look back and wonder what i did back when...

the dishes are over-flowing

the toys are rarely picked up

AND my current must have to keep up this pace

but catching moments like these make it all worth it:
