Nurturing Something New


I began the idea of the website only a few months ago. As corny as it sounds, I feel like my whole life has brought me to this very point in time. I've had many careers that I've been passionate about. Some may not consider them as atypical careers. It comes down to your perspective. I define a career as anything that you are passionate about and spend most of your waking hours doing.


Armed with a degree in fashion I skated through life finally hitting it big as a seamstress. I built a business that I loved with clients I adored. The path of a yoga instructor came out of necessity. Some would say it was a happy accident but I know it was all according to a divine plan. This career led me to question everything. The one career that I've been the most passionate about has always been being a mother.


The other careers kind of found me because of my devotion to that one role. I had a love of sewing, creating anything for myself and my children. Sometimes that translates into fabric, yarn, food, bedtime story,or making a pretty bouquet; it all comes down to the creative art of nurturing. The total embodiment of the divine feminine energy. I love all of those things and I'm passionate about them.

I know at some point all of my kids get sick of me making their clothes, Afghans, drawing pictures, explaining color theory and form to them. Again, it is all my perspective of those things. One eventually realizes that you can't put a price on the ability to create. I still have 4 of my 8 children at home and so a few have yet to discover this. The older children now understand that to create anything you desire and possess the ability to find out if you don't know how, is a skill. The Divine creative spark to search out and discover your own way of doing things. Whether that is making jelly or making art on recycled windows. Discovering how YOU do it is the joy. That is why every single one of us is here.


So this brings me to this moment...

This website is a collaboration between my daughter Violette who built and designed the website and the tech support from my home schooled 15 year old son Copper. Let the record show that they both are very talented creatives. The website shows basically my life's work. I put a ton of time and energy into my children and I see those dividends pay out constantly. All of my children have brought so much fulfillment to me over the years and continue to.


I hope to inspire those that are questioning their life choices with little ones. The days of non stop demands from toddlers, diapers and sippy cups. It's not an easy or glamorous job but it is the most rewarding. It may take a few years to see a return on your investment, but like the market bonds it is best to hold on to them till they mature. It is then you will cash in big. Trust me it is a great investment.


My art has become an important part of my life . I've been painting almost daily for 2 years. This is when I find the most parts of me I love. But now in retrospect I realize that I've been doing art all of my life. It is in the act of creating that I find myself. I'm just now discovering what happens when using water and paint. My intention is that the website resonates with those who need it. They find a connection here that in turn inspires them to create and discover.


I will continue my journey of joy and self discovery. I will bring the website along with me. I plan to continue to create the things I love. If someone else loves them and wants to purchase them then that’s a wonderful bonus. I will share my works and on the blog my contemplation's on what they mean to me. I am sending my one drop into the universal pool, and with all my best intentions I release it to ripple outward. Manaska!

Love,

Granny
