We are Defined by our Relationships

As I've gotten older I've realized that the words used to describe me (artist, creative, tall, hearty, redhead) are not what actually defined me. We are all defined, by our relationships to one another.

I am panicking, in a quiet way, about my sons crossover ceremony tomorrow. There's lots to do to get ready for tomorrow. Programs to be created, gifts to be gathered, pants to be hemmed, and uniforms to be washed and ironed. I am doing these things, he is not. My son becomes a Boy Scout tomorrow and I become little more than a chauffeur.  He doesn't want me to be involved in Boy Scouts as much as I was in Cub Scouts. Our relationship is changing. 

I am hoping to build relationships through this blog. Unfortunately, it has been sorely neglected for too long. Right now all I can do is post this quick little message. 

But next week I plan to post a silhouette tutorial that will blow your mind. When I discovered this little trick, I was amazed and couldn't wait to share it. Unfortunately life gets in the way and we all have to wait. Come back Tuesday and see for yourself.

Happy Crafting,
