distractions

give me anything to do other than what i should be doing (making things for the bazaar, cleaning the house..)
and i'm all over it. making more pants for finn, for example (and taking pictures of him crying. again.) would you call it an addiction by now? it's just to quick and easy! this time i used an old favorite polo shirt of mine.
the bottoms of the legs have little vents (that used to be the sides of the shirt, see?). these are lightweight and perfect for summer. just waiting for more warm weather!

A Future of Peace

"What kind of existence can we hope for? Those who come unto Christ, repent of their sins, and live in faith will reside forever in peace. Think of the worth of this eternal gift. Surrounded by those we love, we will know the meaning of ultimate joy as we progress in knowledge and in happiness. No matter how bleak the chapter of our lives may look today, because of the life and sacrifice of Jesus Christ, we may hope and be assured that the ending of the book of our lives will exceed our grandest expectations. 'Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him' (1 Corinthians 2:9)."
Dieter F. Uchtdorf, "The Infinite Power of Hope," Ensign, Nov. 2008, 22–23
Topics: Jesus Christ, Hope, Repentance

Love the pics, love the orange, love the pants and LOVE THE BOY!!!! Crying pics are fun, I love the obsession... ;)

Speaking of love, I LOVE Pres. Uchtdorf's talks-- he's got a gift, I think.

amen Eve... I am forever doing things (making easter dresses...) that don't need to be done, and neglecting the things I NEED to do (the bazaar, my house!) I am so on the same page. Love the pants though. (and I think crying pictures are cute too, but Finny is a doll no matter what he's doing)
