365 Days of Rest #44





These are me at a baby shower. I brought the Pomegranate (Abigail had a ballet rehearsal). My friend Rachel came with her two daughters. 

But I want to share part of my intentionality in my new life. This was a shower for our friend Eliza who we know from ballet. She’s a good friend but not an intimate friend. The shower was lovely, but it was also going into the third hour. I knew this would drain me. So I simply said, at the end of two hours, we have to get going. When Eliza asked me as I was leaving why I had to get home, I just told her I wanted to spend time with JB who just came off a nights run. And I didn’t feel it necessary to say more. I knew my limits, and I wasn’t afraid to exercise them kindly! 

FREEDOM!
