Comfort in a Scent

Triplet Mom Thought of the Day:

This morning I lit my favorite candle from Salt City Candles. It is "Welcome Home," which is also marketed as "Christmas Eve." The aroma has already filled my living room and kitchen and it smells soooooo yummy! Its scent even persuaded me to take a deep breath with my eyes closed to experience it more deeply. It smells so wonderful! Which brings me to my thought of the day: When you are pregnant with triplets there is the first 1/2 of your pregnancy when nothing smells wonderful and even smells you formerly loved are revolting, and then there's the 2nd half of your pregnancy when your are so uncomfortable that nothing brings comfort and you don't even care if something smells good. Needless to say, it has been a long time since anything smelled this good and I am so grateful that something as simple as lighting a candle brought me comfort today! Hooray for not being pregnant! Hooray for my Salt City Candle!
