    my vote goes to you! even if your design wasn’t my favorite (which it is,) hand-painting that porch while nine months pregnant deserves major rewards! believe me, i wasn’t painting anything when i was nine months along, not even close. kudos!
    also, congratulations on your sweet new baby. so glad she’s healthy and home.
