You can still make stuff, right, just for a later date? I did one or two craft shows and never felt that high anyway so I guess I can't totally understand. I make (a very large number of) things but without the pressure of time in a lot of ways...... I'm sure you will come out ahead! naominoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37673084739109600.post-68128276107013211972012-04-21T03:47:47.556-04:002012-04-21T03:47:47.556-04:00Aw honey!

Thankfully you have two bright eyed babes and a gorgeous husband to soften the blow!

It seems the older I get the less I know. ...Hi Mel<br />It seems the older I get the less I know. I remember 'knowing so much' and 'being so sure' when I was young and then I got married and had kids and then my kids grew up and now I feel like a child in a flower garden for the first time. The learning never ends and there is so so much to learn about life. There was a time (about 8 years) that I put art on the shelf and worked with my husband towards the goal of living a life in art. Many times I've had to stop and 'do less' in order to be a good mother and wife. All those times of 'not' making art helped to infuse the art that I eventually did make with clarity and vision. Doing less has always served me well. You will feel so much more grounded. Your family will feel so much more content. All this will enable you to tiptoe once again into 'making'. Remember, you can always daydream and all those daydreams make a wonderful garden for creative growth. What a beautiful and creative family you are growing!

We only have a limited amount of time left together to play until his sister ruins his life for a little while, lol! Then we'll be even more off balance for a bit. In a few years I can sew more steadily... maybe :o) A small and worthy sacrifice for all the kiddos out there!Wilsonnoreply@blogger.com
