a little stressful

work has been a little stressful (more so lately),

and upbeat emotions with news of a new grandchild on the way (HAPPY)

a young coworker who is just 2 months pregnant (HAPPY)

one long term coworker's emotions over her friend's loss (TEARS)

also a favoured long term employee due to his knowledge and
 connections with many employees,
is retiring at the end of the month (SURPRISE/JEALOUSY!)

i am going to mention that all of these emotions were bouncing around

yet be compassionate and joyful.... all in one day?

kinda takes away from any feelings I had going on, so

{Tom helped me make this and it is real cute when the mini lites
