Completion

Having once decided to achieve a certain task, achieve it at all costs of tedium and distaste. The gain in self-confidence of having accomplished a tiresome labor is immense. – Thomas A. Bennett
Long before I had Blake I had created my template of what his birth announcement would be and thought that I would be able to quickly create them after his birth. Originally, I had thought I would only need 25 or so. I now wonder, what was I thinking... I ended up sending out nearly 90 of them. Many times, I almost gave up, but I hated that I had put work into something and was not completing it. That is when I found this quote and I'll tell you what, I am so thrilled that this weekend I completed my task! (I cheated just a bit and create a photo image of the handcrafted design to send to many.)
