Hello everyone!
Happy Labor day! It's a fantastic day, celebrating the achievements of American workers, but also a new life in the family! My sister-in-law had her son last night at 3am, which makes me a new and first-time aunt! I cannot express my joy in words. It truly was an amazing thing to be apart of.
To be honest, the idea of child labor freaks me out to a major extent, and all last night while we were waiting in the hospital, it just gave me the willies thinking about it. However, the moment we stepped into the room and saw the baby, all of that worry and thought of how agonizing it must be just vanished. I got a glimpse of what it's like to hold your child after waiting over 9 months, and it blows me away.
We're going up to visit them today for a bit, but then I'll be back to work on some commission pieces.
I leave for school in 3 days and will be busy this week trying to pack everything back up again.
I've just got a whole mix of emotions engulfing me this week; New nephew, moving, reminiscing, realizing it's my last full year, knowing I only have half a year left with my best friend (who attends school with me), getting to see my boyfriend/best friend again, saying bye to my family until winter, missing the smells and colors of fall, not being home for my Birthday, going back to school and stressing over projects and assignments, trying to make enough money for school, etc etc etc. The list goes on and on... All of this (and more) has really been weighing on me, and it's scary. Sometimes it'll be so overwhelming that I just sort of start to sob out of the blue. However, I know that I need to put my trust in God's hands right now and not rely on my own understanding (Proverbs 3:5-6). I look forward to what He has planned for me and I know I have a lot of great things in store that are ahead.
Anyway, all that being said, I'm only taking on one more set of commissions in the next couple of days and then will be taking an absence for at least a week or two before getting back at it.
Thank you all who follow and support me in what I do. It's been a great encouragement to me, especially going back to art school, to see people that actually enjoy my work. :)
Best wishes to everyone, and I hope to be back soon!
