enjoy the simple things








With having a birthday just a few weeks ago, I started thinking about the simple pleasures in my young life. I fell in love with crochet a couple of years ago, & I could spend hours looking at different designs on Pinterest. I love baking cookies. I love looking up recipes for different kinds of cookies. I feel like my only vices are the same as an elderly grandmother.
But I do not feel alone, being a twenty-something female that is drawn to activities that have been a staple in women's domestic lives for centuries. I have seen it again and again in my day to day life with friends and loved ones, online, & television. May women and girls have a strong desire to use their hands and be creative. It is good for the female soul. Don't be embarrassed to take pleasure in the simple things.
God bless!

Therefore I perceived that there is nothing better than that a man should rejoice in his own works,
      for that is his portion; for who shall bring him to see what shall be after him?

  1. That's why now that I'm a retired homeschool mom, I'm gonna take pottery classes to learn how to play in the mud.
