After all this time, I'm finally posting. And finally got around to taking some photos. I keep meaning to post them but stuff kept coming up (like tearing apart the master bath... and the furnace deciding to stop working...) Then I stumbled upon this post at Between Naps on the Porch, which is one of the blogs I read when I get a chance. These link "parties" are always cool to take a bit to browse because you get some really great ideas from other people you would never otherwise meet in real life! Now, thanks to Laurie, I read quite a few home decor and DIY blogs. But have never posted photos or linked to them. I love to look but it never occurs to me to share my stuff with anyone else. And when I saw HomeGoods I got a little sniffy because I loved HomeGoods when we lived in Maryland (their Waugh Chapel store misses me, I'm sure.)

Hey there! So you may be wondering what this photo has to do with faith and art.

But gift as in God loves me so much that He decided He would plant this idea because He knew that it would bless my life in my thinking and my actions and that it has been a seriously great thing for me in that even when I'm not posting, the faith and art connection is something that is woven through just about ev
Preface: I'm so excited to see that there are people reading this! Not to be popular, but to have other people to bounce this stuff off of (just because I write it doesn't mean I'm right.) I hope if you are reading this, and you want to say something? That you'll say it. Feel free. Less lurking, more throwing yourself into the fray. My older son, Liam, is seven. He is a huge fan of a line of computer games called Backyard Sports . In these games you have the opportunity to get to know each player by clicking on their biography. There is background music, animation and all that fun stuff that keeps Liam from paying attention when I talk to him. One morning I heard Liam listening to some of the players bios and when he called me into the room, I figured he had found yet one more that made him laugh so he wanted to show me. Instead? He said, "Listen to this music, Mom." The player was talking so at first I didn't even realize there was anything to the back
