A Little More Craziness? Yes Please.

{Journey to the Grave Notecard}

We should go all out during this life shouldn't we? Live life to the fullest... as long as we are doing something we enjoy and it is good for our family. Well February should be an interesting month. Jan. 31st I start taking part in Get Your Paint On. The class is taught by the very talented Mati Rose and Lisa Congdon. Any of you taking the class? I am very excited and am hoping it will give me the push I need to get going on some new paintings. I owe a big thank you to my hubby for this b-day gift. He is such a wonderful supporter of my art.

Then the first weekend in February is Kaelyn's third birthday party! Can't believe my baby is already turning 3! She is super excited for her party and can't wait for the cake! Ha! And to think last year she was more excited about eating the cheese rather than the cake. (she had allergies to milk products and eggs but was just starting to tolerate some milk products when she turned 2)

The day after the party I go back to my corporate marketing job. The good news is I only have to go back full time a few days til I get the hang of it again and then I can work from home! Yay! I know it will be harder doing the job at home with Kaelyn and keeping up with Enduring Arts too, but it was an opportunity I couldn't pass up. For now I think it's the best decision. I did a lot of praying about it, and there's a certain peacefulness in my heart that I know it is right. I know now that I'm not stuck any where and I can still do my own art and take care of my number one priority... my daughter.

Hopefully it won't take too long to find a new structure to my days where I can find a balance to being a good mom, wife, daughter, maid, cook, artist, designer and such all at the same time. Hoping we'll have the house renovations pretty much finished up too. I just have to remind myself that God will help me along... don't stress, just enjoy this crazy, good life.
