Happy Sunday! You know what? I’m in love with the weekend. Every weekend. Whether I have plans or shower and put my pijames back on, I love the weekend. It’s my two day detox from the work week.

15:7 The lips of the wise spread knowledge; not so the hearts of fools. When I read this verse, I’m reminded of my favorite Disney character, Thumper.
