Pink Giveaway!

Whose little girl would love a pink ruffle skirt?
**What about a FREE hair flower?**

I have a goal to make 6 skirts, to support my friend Stephanie's running in the Marathon for a Cure.

100% of the purchase price will go to Stephanie's fundraising for her run.



Over the rest of January, every purchase of the Pink For a Cure Ruffle Skirt will be entered into a **giveaway** for the hairflower seen on the model in the listing. Stephanie made it, and let me tell you, it's gorgeous!





The Pink For a Cure Ruffle Skirt is perfect for Valentine's Day, as well as this upcoming spring!





Thank you for your support!

Pink - For a Cure!

My friend Stephanie's grandmother was recently diagnosed with breast cancer. In her honor, Stephanie has decided to run in the Marathon For a Cure, and needs to raise $1,100.

I am trying to help her raise the needed funds with a fun, pink design! It's also (appropriately) Breast Cancer Awareness month in October, so I felt this was the right time to help her out! Stephanie's daughter Izzy, is my model for this listing.

100% of the list price of this skirt will be going to support Stephanie's running in her grandmother's honor - your generous support is appreciated!

So here it is:

A Bend In the Road

by Helen Steiner Rice

When we feel we have nothing left to give
And we are sure that the song has ended,
When our day seems over and the shadows fall
And the darkness of night has descended,
Where can we go to find the strength
To valiantly keep on trying?
Where can we find the hand that will dry
The tears that the heart is crying?

There's but one place to go and that is to God,
And, dropping all pretense and pride,
We can pour out our problems without restraint
And gain strength with Him at our side.
And together we stand at life's crossroads
And view what we think is the end,
But God has a much bigger vision,
And He tells us it's only a bend.

For the road goes on and is smoother,
And the pause in the song is a rest,
And the part that's unsung and unfinished
Is the sweetest and richest and best.
So rest and relax and grow stronger,
Let go and let God share your load.
Your work is not finished or ended,
You've just come to a bend in the road.

faith for the journey

Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Hebrews 11:1

I mentioned Karen on Friday, and had the pleasure of spending some time with her and her family yesterday. Karen is doing very well, and I am so proud of her for her positive attitude of faith and trust in God's promise to her that He is and will take care of her through the battle she's facing.




I went to take pictures for Karen as a way of giving her something to mark the beginning of this journey, and a reminder of the love of her family and her Heavenly Father. It's my hope that she will be encouraged by these photos in some way.

Fingerprint Friday { consider the flowers }

I'm not sure what to write this morning, my mind is full of many thoughts and emotions.

A sweet friend from church is going in today for her first chemotherapy treatment this morning for Stage 3 breast cancer, having just been told of her diagnosis yesterday. She did share that God had given her unexplainable peace before she received her test results. I believe that was His way of telling her He is taking care of everything no matter the results.

So that is my prayer. That she and her family and her friends will stand firm believing that
God's hand is right there, taking care of everything.



Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you [Rebekah adds: take care of your physical needs]...?

Matthew 6:29-30








There is a song by Steven Curtis Chapman that says:
I can see the fingerprints of God
When I look at you
I can see the fingerprints of God
And I know its true
You're a masterpiece
That all creation quietly applauds
And you're covered with the fingerprints of God


So look around you and see where YOU can see God's fingerprints. Is it in nature? Kids? Animals? Where do you see them? Here's how to join in:
