Just Believe, Just Do.




I love this so much I had to share. I also am in need of pouring a little bit of my heart, and mind, out. In hopes that you all might actually take the time to read this and be so kind as to leave some encouraging words or helpful hints??? Pretty please. I could put it to good use. :)


You know how the older that you get you realize just how fast your life can change? In a moment, one minute your day is just as ordinary as any other then all the sudden the phone rings, or an e-mail comes through, and your day took a "one eighty". Well, I kinda feel like that has happened to me in the past couple weeks. It has brought some WONDERFUL news and exciting new opportunities!! My question to myself has been how does a mother of a one & three year old juggle the wants, needs, & demands? Don't get me wrong, this is one of the most blessed and greatest problems I have ever had. I actually am falling in love with this problem. Hehe!!


I kinda stumbled slowly into this photography thing and then went head over heels with it at lightening speed! Friends and family kept encouraging me to "take up photography", my response was always "NO. Not another hobby!!" Well, a holiday weekend I took some pics and that was all she wrote! So here I am taking pics of anything that moves and loving every minute of it!! On top of that I actually have people that want to pay me $$$ to do their pics!! That in it self makes my heart melt!! So, then I have this other little thing I like to do, SEW! I have really taken that slowly because my family is in a stage that they need me and I do not want to miss this time with my kids. But sewing, I have to say, is my first love. Well, I got a call saying that this cute little boutique in Jerome, Arizona (awesome place) wanted to look (as in touch, feel, see in person!!) some of my things!!! I think I was in such shock that I got a lump in my throat and I kinda didn't believe it!! Anyway I need to get cooking and sew up the most awesome things I have ever made in my life! I want my creations to be in Arizona, in a boutique, selling like hot cakes.:)


So here are the thoughts that race through my mind when I go to bed, when I wake up, when I do the dishes, etc. "How can I find the time to sew mass amounts of clothes & bags and keep the house clean, laundry done, healthy meals cooked, spend quality summer time outside with the kids, sleep, give baths, change diapers, potty train, paci break, have time with my husband, extreme coupon, grocery shop,take pictures, edit pictures, and above ALL keep my God first in everything I do??" As I type this I think I answer my own question. I feel like God dealt with me awhile back when I was having similar thoughts on how to "find time". That is it.....Keep God first in every day and he will make time for all else. Things will fall into place. He will give me energy and motivation to keep up. He will open the windows of Heaven & poor out blessings on my day. Alright, thanks for reading my rant and I still would love to hear what ya'll think. The opinions of others is something I can use to build off of.

P.S. Here is a little peek at my new baby girl dress. You think I should send one of these to Arizona???
