Is this thing on?
So it's been a while. Like three years "while". I must confess that I almost deleted this entire blog several times in the past few years, but always ended up keeping it. I am so glad that I did. A lot has transpired since the last time we have "talked". I lost my father in 2016. Life is so different without him. I now have a First Grader and Pre-Schooler. I am now an Auntie to the most adorable one-year old you have ever laid eyes on. I am still working with special needs children which I greatly enjoy. It helps me in dealing with my own special needs child. The challenges are great and some days really stink...but the victories keep me going. I see how much she is changing and how much I am changing my self. I am in the season of life where transparency is of utmost importance to me. This transparency is two-fold: transparency before others and before God. I have learned to acknowledge my rough days, yet still give glory to God who deserves my highest praise.
I am still a crafter. Still detail-oriented. Just real. Just trying to find my balance between being a mom, wife, Christ-follower, and servant of others. In the past, I was always creating just to create, so I could be the most "creative" one. Now, I create because I appreciate being able to find the beauty in all things in life. God is the ultimate creator and all the glory belongs to Him. I still have so many things to share with you, but they are an overflow of my life that I am already living. Not one that I am trying to "create". See what I did there??? So please realize that many of my future posts will probably be about 2 years old in my real life. I have plenty of baby showers, birthdays, and other holiday crafts to share with you. I have also embarked into doing inductive bible study and am trying my hand at this world of bible journaling. Bible journaling has been a challenge, because my handwriting is atrocious. But God sees the beauty in it I am sure.
I hope you will join me! I hope you you will share with me! I hope to inspire others! I hope to be inspired by you!
