Spring is upon us & I'm inspired!

I've been 'tucked away' for awhile and I don't have a great excuse ...
It is now April 16th. Yes time does fly.
We had snow last night but the birds don't mind, they're out there jabbering away at each other ... maybe staking a claim to one of the several houses my neighbor has posted next door.

While I was away, I've been creating more photo prop items for my shop, http://www.lollybopbaby.etsy.com/ and spending time bonding with my family.

While I listen to the Allison & Alexix on the Shop Girls,  http://mytalk1071.com/shows/shopgirls My Talk Radio, I'll be sipping on my cuppa joe and listing a wool/acrylic photo prop beanie in my shop.
Then I will be teetering back and forth between my teen & more creating.

                             

As I sign off, I'm leaving you with great big Minnesota Nice hugs and best wishes for an accomplished wonderful Saturday!

Be blessed

Look What I've Been Up To

I have been having so much fun over the last several weeks creating, that I have neglected my blogging. My bad.

Since we last visited, I have learned (again) to knit. I've mastered the simple beanie and some embellished beanies.
I've done pretty well with adding colors too (yippie!).

I feel so accomplished, like a kid that has just learned to tie her shoes or dress herself.

I've also been making tutus and just finished an order for a dance studio in Texas for a group of girls who are having a recital in February.  What fun when I got that request!

I truely feel blessed to be creating for my customers.
As some of you know, I have been out of a job for approx 2 yrs and this is my only income for now. So thank you all for reading my blog, passing my shop link along, and for your support.
I cherish you and am also thankful to have the opportunity to do what I love.

"Angel" ~*~ Happy Mother's Day ~*~

A Newborn's Conversation with God A baby asked God, "They tell me you are sending me to earth tomorrow, but how am I going to live there being so small and helpless?"

God said, "Your angel will be waiting for you and will take care of you." The child further inquired, "But tell me, here in heaven I don't have to do anything but sing and smile to be happy."

God said, "Your angel will sing for you and will also smile for you. And you will feel your angel's love and be very happy." Again the small child asked, "And how am I going to be able to understand when people talk to me if I don't know the language?"

God said, "Your angel will tell you the most beautiful and sweet words you will ever hear, and with much patience and care, your angel will teach you how to speak." "And what am I going to do when I want to talk to you?"

God said, "Your angel will place your hands together and will teach you how to pray." "Who will protect me?"

God said, "Your angel will defend you even if it means risking its life." "But I will always be sad because I will not see you anymore."

God said, "Your angel will always talk to you about Me and will teach you the way to come back to Me, even though I will always be next to you." At that moment there was much peace in Heaven, but voices from Earth could be heard and the child hurriedly asked, "God, if I am to leave now, please tell me my angel's name."

God said, You will simply call her, "Mom."
