Changes

















Yesterday was closing day for my mom's business.
After 15 years, that chapter is closed.
For the past 4 years, I have worked for my mom.
Honestly, I don't know how I feel.

But for today, I find this to be true.
Kindness.
Use it. Share it.
Don't save it. Don't spoon feed it.
Show the world your authentic kindness.

"Wherever there is a human being,

there is an opportunity for a kindness."

-Seneca


Photo - Through all the changes of the past few weeks these garlands have kept me coloring and playing. They bring me great joy. I can't seem to get enough of them.

Calm & Storm


















There are some things you learn best in calm,

and some in storm.

-Willa Cather

Photo - I made another garland over the weekend from an empty Cheez-It box. The coloring of her face was inspired by Woodcutter of The Wood Pile. When Steve colored one of my coloring pages, he used flesh tones and pink cheeks. I thought it was sweet.
