red balloons

My life is full of beautiful, fragile elements. I am a mother. I am a wife. I am a collector. I am a writer. I am lucky to hold such a beautiful bouquet of balloons.
Welcome to my creative journal, my collection of projects, ideas, and attempts in many creative fields. Film. Food. Handmade. Design. Photography. Sewing. Raising my children. This last one may be the most creative endeavor of all.
My hope is to organize myself enough to learn more, and to dedicate more time to writing. I also hope to do more creative and fun activities with my kids.
My sister-in-law shared this lovely quote with me, and it has stuck--
"Let us then, be up and doing. With a heart for any fate; Still achieving, still pursuing, Learn to labor and to wait." Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Here's to new beginnings, to focusing, to seeking new skills, to being more organized, to being more creative, and to doing creative things. Most of all here's to doing.
