Peace!

Hello!!  It feels like it's been FOREVER since I've posted last.  A whole week. . . YIKES, who waits that long to blog?  I hope I don't make that a habit.

Well last week, I mentioned that Lulu & I  were supposed to meet with a business owner about our products.  We met with her on Saturday and guess what?  She loved EVERYTHING!  She has it all on display in her shop.  Her store is very unique.  There are so many items on display, but her product is actually refurbished wooden furniture.  She will paint and distress a piece, post it on Facebook, and it's sold within minutes.  Then the buyer comes in to pick it up.  That's when they get the opportunity to see her other goodies.  She has other crafters' products in her shop as well.  It's a little haven for all things pink and frou-frou (what I call anything princessy).  At this point we're praying our stuff sells.  If we leave it there awhile and nothing goes she gives it back and we can sell it on Etsy or at a craft show.

Since we just put all of our products in her store our little Etsy shop has been put on hold yet again.  Just until we can get some more things put together.  Y'all would have loved the stuff we took over there.  Lulu made THE CUTEST cloth diapers and matching paci clips.  Seriously, they were absolutely adorable.  I have a few pics on my camera.  I'll have to get them loaded on here so you guys can love 'em as much as I do.

Moving on.  You may wonder why my blog title is "Peace!".  I know all I've talked about is our meeting with the store owner.  But this morning I've been thinking on peace. . . and how thankful I am that I can feel at peace.  There are times in life when it seems like we are so troubled, but then, just when you need it, when you think you can't take another step,  the Lord will give you a momentary reprieve.  Even through the troubled times of life I'm glad that I know the Lord's peace - the kind that passeth all understanding!  There aren't words to explain the feeling I'm describing.  If you know what I mean, then you know.  If you don't know, well, you won't until you experience it for yourself.  And I hope one day you will.

It's Thankful Thursday!!  Today I'm thankful for:

• My husband feeling better today.  He wasn't feeling so hot last night, but this morning he was able to go into work.  He texted me earlier telling me that he felt alot better.
• My baby boy asking me to help him pray for his daddy last night.  He's the sweetest!
• That this past weekend worked out for one of my sisters.  Their family had been planning on being in a certain place and then my brother had to work over and it looked like it wasn't going to work out.  But he was able to get off work just in time for them to make it.
• That our crafts are in a highly trafficked store where they will have a great a opportunity to sell.
• The rain stopped.  Yes, I know the earth needs rain.  That rain is good.  But, sometimes, I just need a break from it.
• Peace

I hope you all have a great day!  Hopefully it won't be a week before you hear from me again.
