Happy Friday! The flowers. They’re just everywhere<\/em>, eye candy galore.

Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous.<\/p>\n A quick watercolor sketch today (hmmmm, as I’m looking at it, they blooms resemble campfire, do they not?), as I have some preparations ahead of me. My mom is coming next Tuesday, a new baby is joining our little townhouse complex (my neighbor is at the hospital delivering her baby as I type this) and I just feel the urge to freshen everything up.<\/p>\n It’s amazing what a few consecutive days of sunshine will do to boost the mood.
