Changes are coming…

I have been looking at the future with a little apprehension, knowing that there are a lot of changes coming my way, hard changes, ones that cause me to want to climb back into bed and stay there until they all disappear. Well it doesn't work that way. Changes come with life, that's just the way it is. So I'm getting out of bed and going to be a big girl and face these changes head on.

Well one change I don't mind making is the changes that I make to clothes, I love making clothes look new and different. Last week I found this cute sweater and I knew right off that I would have to change it up a bit.

BEFORE

It was super easy – here is what I did: I just took my handy dandy seam ripper and took the sleeves and neck piece out – that simple!

AFTER

Sorry had no extra hands to take the photo. Much more sophisticated dont you think?

I am confident that you will handle the 'changes' with the same grace and style with which you 'change' clothes into new creations!

Thanks Ryan for the vote of confidence!

Cute sweater! You are absolutely adorable. Whatever these changes may be, everything will work out. Change is good, even if we don't like the idea of it.

Thanks Evan! Yes change is good but not always fun.

Well, I am super curious. A daughter moving away for college perhaps? I'll be reading along as you share details. And Ryan's right. You are a rock!
