i want to make this cake....my kids would LOVE it.
a commenter yesterday told me about this site....a Childs Own.
i was in awe.
the poor girl is so swamped with work though. i wish i could help her out!
she is an amazing artist!
my kids loved it too.
they kept thinking of which of their drawings would be the best to send in.
:)
i think they think it's a contest....
annie quickly drew this picture for that blog.
a rainbow bus!!! love that....and those cookies too.
mmmm.
i am sitting here in the crafting/dining room....surrounded and nearly buried in the things to prepare for the Whatever Craft Weekend #3.
i had a successful day today getting supplies and using my time well.
(that can be translated as....i had time for starbucks without having to speed on my way to the bus stop)
do you see i found cupcake fabric that is glittered?! hello?!!
(brother sister design studio fabric from hobby lobby) (and my planner is from erin condren)
this is my little crafty cave.

so this has been on my mind to share with you lovely ladies.....
i was driving in my car and listening to a christian music station.
the DJ came on and said who the song was by and then said something like:
"there are so many people that think they need to change before God will love them"
they say that in church, in books, on the radio.
i have heard that probably over a hundred times in my life.
but all of a sudden
I HEARD IT.
and i felt so sad in my heart.
do people REALLY think that?
Are there people that think that God won't love them if they are flawed?
That they have to be fixed and pretty and better before God would want them?
if that is you....if that is what you were taught or what you have told yourself....
IT IS NOT TRUE.
You cannot do anything in your life to make God love you more.
You cannot do anything in your life to make God love you less.
HE IS LOVE.
He loves you....right now.
in your mess.
in your heartache.
in your despair.
in your mistakes.
in your anger.
in your grief.
in your fear.
in your depression.
in your loneliness.
in every teeny tiny corner of your very being.....
HE LOVES YOU.
no matter what you did ten years ago, last month or today.
He is ready to welcome you into His open arms.
all you have to do is ASK.
i hope you know that deep and unfailing and unENDING and never changing LOVE from God and Jesus.
"Jesus said, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick." Matthew 9: 12
"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest."
Matthew 11:28
