It's been a while, I never should had left you...

Its been almost a year.  I really can't belive that.  Well some much has happen.  Good things, great things and no so good things, but over all GREAT things.

But moving right along, let's start from today. 

I am excited again about paper crafting.  After all it was my first love.  I love to say that I am cheating on paper with fabric.  I have delegated a weekend each month to start back doing papercraft.  My plan is to share my paper and fabric work with you here.

OH YES, I just started with periscope so hopefully I will be able to share some videos here.

I learned a lot about myself this year.  If the me now was having a talk with the 19 year old me...
I would say, RELAX it all works out.  You're going to make mistakes, go through a lot of bad and good times (more good) but they're going to make you an awesome outstanding woman.

The me now, wouldn't change anything about my pass (nope not even that).  I am the strong, beautiful , God loving, intelligent, family loving, loyal friend that I am now because of my pass.

This year I will continue to put God first.
