David opened yesterday's staff meeting with this verse, "Seek God's will in all you do, and He will show you the path to take." Proverbs 3:6

He explained, as business owners, we are always seeking God for wisdom. The decisions we make are an attempt to make our business better for our employees and our customers. The decisions are never meant to make life harder for anyone. Much thought and meaning are behind them--and sometimes a few tears. We're the first to admit when a decision needs to be changed if we recognize it's not working well. It's not fun to fail, but it's necessary in learning what works and what doesn't.

Marriage

I remember it like it was yesterday. My husband and I were expecting our first child. I was seven months pregnant and a total hormonal basket case. I stayed sick and exhausted for the duration of my pregnancy. Even though I was extremely OCD, I had let things go on the home front. I couldn't find the energy inside me to cook and clean like I did pre-pregnancy. And since I was growing another human being inside my body, I gave myself a pass.
