I‘m sitting here today with Emma and we are working on all of our subjects in home school. I’m fighting the urge to really allow myself to feel discouraged. I just want to cut loose and wallow in fear and negativity. Seriously, don’t you love […]

Project- Candle Sticks
In getting our house ready for the market, I’ve had a lot of little projects going on. I’ve been painting objects to put in the house. One of my favorites was this set of candle sticks. I’m sure there will be at least one person […]

Be Still, My Heart
