artist — mother — create — love — laugh — pray

This is to be a quiet place for me. A well deserved 10 minutes for a mommy to gain clarity & perspective, perhaps discover how to manage this balancing act of mine? I've also decided this to be my creative voice so you will likely see art (& artists) I admire, recipes, inspirational quotes. Or even a nod to the latest gadget/child must-have? My joys & frustrations with parenthood, work & most anything else that goes on in my oh-so-glamorous life! I'm a stay at home mommy by day. At night I read bedtime stories. When I'm not busy cutting food into small pieces, I design.

balance.

i'm starting to read this great book called Balanced Living: Focus on the Family Women's Series Bible Study and am loving it. "When we try to do it all, we end up stressed out, fatigued and disconnected from God. But He didn't put us here to pile our plates so high that we fail to function. In fact, Jesus clearly tells us that our daily worries are unimportant. The most valuable way we can spend our day is with Him (see Luke 11:38-42). When you recognize God's design for your life, you can constructively use your time, talents and energy to live the blessed life He wants you to embrace. Topics include: our Position, our Priorities, our Purpose, and our Pleasure."
