Two happy elephants + transitioning slowly back into the blog world

(Our kitschy lil’ elephant salt shakers.)

It is an exhausting but good season, sprinkled with just enough chai lattes to keep my eyelids peeled back. (If I had a dollar for every hour I’ve spent on the phone with customer service over our wedding registries…)

Then, there are thoughts that whirl in my head like this:

Questions about covenants.

The meaning of marriage as a picture of the Gospel.

How to glorify God when we’ve both been secretly inundated with the message "Your Spouse Will Make You Always Happy Happy."

Then—what is my responsibility as a wise wife-to-be? Is there value in frugality? (Or better, is there virtue in it?) 

Then work calls. I have to design something and send it out, quickly, quickly, and try to find where I left off in my head.

But burrowed in covers at the end of the day, all I can think is how grateful I should be—how grateful I am—underneath it all.
