It is finished

Those are the words that were spoken of the cross. They are the words I can speak now of my dad's passing. It is finished. It was as if we were on "holy ground" by his bedside as he went to be with the Lord. My heart is empty for him. I wish he didn't have to go, but, it was his time. I will surely miss him, but, I would not want him to come back to this life. He is with our mom and I know he is happy now. His service was beautiful and with the things of his, that is how we will remember him. In the next few weeks, we'll have things to deal with, but, nothing that will be harder than what God would ask of us. He is good all the time, and all the time God is good!


Wishing you all a wonderful week full of blessings of God.
No sewing this week, maybe not even next week.

Soon, I'll be making alterations for my sister's step child for a flower girl dress. It looks like it might be a little difficult, but, hopefully I can tackle it. Will post some pics when I begin in April on that.

And hope to get some items for real in my etsy shop. However, I have to think about changing that name and making my own account.

Still here....

I'm still here, waiting, waiting.... I know it's a hard time for all my family. There are after all 11 kids in my family. My mom and dad were busy! I've missed my mom, most of my adult life, well, all of my adult life, and there were 8 kids under me, so imagine how that felt for all of us to lose our mom so young! Now, having had my dad for alot of my adult life, I'm really going to miss him. You understand yes? Well, here we are... God bless you all on this beautiful Thursday. I have to get my dear hubby off to his Camino Weekend. Looking at traveling down to my dad's over the immediate weekend, and getting ready for the Women's Camino Weekend at the same time. Ugg!

MIA...

I've been missing in action lately. My dad is in his last time of his life, and I've been trying my hardest to get down to see him every chance I get. It breaks my heart to see him slipping away. But, I also know that "all things work together for good". So I believe it is God's timing in his life, and I'm just going to have to "let go" and let God have his way with my daddy.

It's not like I haven't been making things, I have, but, I don't have pictures to post. I am going to get my daughter to take pics of the last sets of things that I've been working on and get those up here for you to see. If you read this blog, it would be greatly helpful if you'd shoot me an email so that I know you have seen my work. Let me know what you think of it. I'm wondering if I should get these things up on my etsy so that I can begin to make some money on them?

Keep watching for me, my time has not yet come where these Amigukids and Krinklekids are concerned. I'm waiting on the Lord to lead me to the next step.

God be with you all on this fine SUNNY! Tuesday morning!
