Today I write…

I have been neglecting my blog recently; not for lack of making, but for a lack of focus on what to say about what I make. Writing meaningful posts does not come as easily to me as making. I am more prolific than profound as a maker. And I have sat with that pronouncement and procrastinated too long because of it. So today I write – not because I have anything really important to say, but because I want to model to those dear to me that faced with a challenge, I do not settle. I change “I can’t” into “I can and I will.” Because it is not easy. Because it is challenging. Because that is the stuff that makes us grow.

 

 

Day 229 – My daughter and I created a happy jar to hold all of our good thoughts and memories. We collaged the top using magazine paper. When we have a bad day, we can open the jar and find some Happy! (Thanks Emma) (Taken with Instagram)
