Haven't Taken Much Time

As you can probably see from my first post, I haven't taken much time to create myself. Well...I have, but I still need to figure out how to get pictures on this thing. I actually think I just figured it out! Sweet!!! So until I post my creative stuff, I'm going to post something about faith.

About two weeks ago we discovered that my oldest daughter had head lice. YUCK! After spending almost $100 bucks getting rid of it, we discovered my two youngest daughters had it too. Double YUCK! Another $100+ and we're still fighting the battle. I know this battle isn't the end of the world, but it's very stressful because I try to take very good care of my girls. As with every struggle I always try to find the positive. Here's my positives.
1. I have one of the very best mothers in the world. She's always there for me when I need her.
2. I have the very best friends in the world. Anyone that will come pick the nits out of your child's hair is pretty special. Thank you Machaelle and Rhonda
3. God has the control not me. While I can buy every product on the market and comb every strand, He really has the power to get rid of this nusance. I have to let Him guide me and BELIEVE He'll make everything better.
4. What I'm going through is nothing compared to what others face every day.

I encourage you to look at a tough situation that you may be facing and really try to see what the God lesson is in it. It may give you the strength to keep going.

No, we're not lice free yet, but I BELIEVE we will be soon. Please keep my family in your prayers.

This Took Forever!

How hard could it be to think of a name for a blog? Well for me...too hard. I completely over think things. Good Grief! Here's my reasoning for what I came up with. I absolutely love to do crafts, so I believe whole heartily in taking time for yourself to create something with your hands. My favorite art to spend time on is rubber stamping, but I like to do all kinds of different things. Usually I create some pretty cool stuff (if I do say so myself) and most importantly I have fun and destress by being creative.
My intention with my blog spot is to post what I've been working on and hopefully inspire others to take time to create. :) Stop back by soon.
