So it was a Surprise

Easter was yesterday and we had a Great day as a family! I made a blouse to wear with the skirt I made to wear to church. I worked on that blouse until 1:30 am the night before & until 10am on Easter morning. That was rather stressful being on such a cramped time constraint. I won't do that again! That was poorly thought out, But in the end my blouse came out beautifully! 

We decided to visit a new church, although it's not our same denomination, but close to it. Our son was able to be involved in their Children's Church, so we were really happy about that. He is at the age where he really needs children's church for the interaction with other children as well as learning about Christ in a group setting. At home I am constantly teaching him about Jesus and His goodness. 


 The reason I entitled this blog "So it was a Surprise" was because of what a nice elderly lady told me in Walmart in the craft department after I asked her for some help on a pattern.  She said "You never know, you might just surprise yourself." And how profound those words would become in my life. I really have surprised myself when it comes to sewing & loving it..... Also in other areas of my life.  It really made me reflect. Needless to say, that lady was sent by God to give me that encouragement, I hope I get the privilege to see her again some day in Heaven. She doesn't even know she made an impression on me.
