Life Happens....

It's been a while since I've updated my blog, mainly because I have things to deal with and make decisions about in my life - home, family, career. Nothing serious, just things that need my attention. In the process I lost my crafting mojo. I would go in my craft room and try to start projects, but I end up staring at my desk and nothing gets done. I am hoping that it would change really soon. I have so many materials sitting in my room, so many ideas in my head, but I can't focus on them right now. The one very good thing about all this, however, is that I am developing a closer relationship with God, which is the most important thing. I know it is His way of telling me that I need to seek Him first and make Him a priority in my life, and everything else will follow and be alright.

I hope to be back with some awesome projects really soon!

Thankful...

Today's post is not crafty. I just want to express my gratitude to God for all the many blessings that He continues to give me and my family. This holiday weekend gave me a chance to stop and think about the important things in my life and the fact that I am blessed with so much. Sure there are times when I feel down and helpless, but the most important thing for me is that I have my husband and my girls to be thankful for. They don't know how much I appreciate and cherish them when I come home after a rough day at work. Their mere presence is enough to make me feel better. Thank you Lord, for giving me such a loving and wonderful family. Thank you for my dad and my sister, my relatives and my friends. Thank you for my job and the students that You've entrusted in my care. I pray that I will make a difference in their lives. Thank you for continuing to provide for our family. Lastly, thank you for always being there for me in good times and bad. I know I can always depend on you!
