You scared the CRAFT out of me!

I have the craft bug...dangit!  I kind of feel like this sane looking person:

What is it?  I'm almost thirty and have two kids...feeling older? Yes. Now I have started using the sewing machine and hot glue gun...feeling even older? Uh-huh. I want to make things...but I'm not very good at it.  I think I would get a C+ if I had to grade myself...severely average. 

I get soo insanely, green-eyed jealous of all the other Susy homemakers!  Their pretty bows, my mama's cutesy aprons, etsy makes me feel sad on the inside=( I want to be craft-chic...pero no.

Buttt...I keep trying. Why?  Because I like doing it.  It may be C+ material but gosh darnit it's A+ for effort! That happens a lot in my relationship with God also.  Although I am not supposed to be, I get slightly jealous of those gifted with a beautiful voice, or the ability to lead a women's study group, or those that have that gift to work with the kids.  I feel like a wanderer sometimes, I haven't found my place yet in God's plan.  I think the hardest part is not giving up...to keep serving and volunteering and trying new things.  One day you'll be doing something and say...yes!  This is it!  Until then...keep on truckin'.
