God is rocking my world lately.
I know it.
I’ve asked for it SO MANY times.
Sometimes I really meant it, sometimes I hoped He really wouldn’t . . . Always silently adding, “gently of course.” (doesn’t everyone?!)
This week has been one of those weeks. After a rocky start to this year, I feel so hopeful for the rest of 2010 now. After one too many pity parties, I needed to find something else to do.
Someone else to focus on.
So, I think God just dropped “that something” in my lap our laps today? I’m giddy. Better yet, WE’RE giddy.
WOW. awesome. THANKS God.
So, until the “something else” grows into something I can share. If you need lifting up, feel stressed, hopeless or are, like me, (and sooo many others) confused & broken hearted by
this . . .
you must . . .
you must . . .
you must. . .
listen to this:
And, please, just follow this link: http://www.facebook.com/RuffleButts and become a “fan” of Ruffle Butts. They are donating $1 for every new facebook fan to Layla Grace’s medical bills. There fans have doubled!! since I was last on there (only 1 hour ago). There clothes are way awesome too. One of my favorite outfits that Raleigh is just about to out grow is from Ruffle Butts. So, check ‘em out. And, on a lighter note . . . every time I say “butt” Pressly tells her Daddy that I said a bad word. geez. The accountability around here is getting stiff.
Happy Tuesday:o)
music: JJ Heller, “Your Hands”
Thank you Sara. You’re the best.
ETA: Ok, after the 4th congratulatory email/text on my “announcement” I came back to reread this post & yes, clarification IS most definitely needed.
”something” = way cool project (NOT BABY)
AND
”we” = me & the very talented Sara Chan (not me & Pride).
There.
Are we clear now?? Good.

Adrianne Miller - I love that song….puts thoughts into words
Julie - OMG…Allison, I so thought congrats were in order. But, have fun with Sara. I know with the 2 of ya’ll together, nothing but amazing things will come from it.
Pride - Wow! I just sprayed my monitor with coffee when reading this post. “I think God just dropped that something in my lap today……until the “something else” grows into something I can share.” Are you trying to make me have a heart attack? That would be an awesome blessing but please give some needed clarification next time. OK, I think the blood in returning back to my face. -your loving husband
Christina - Hurry up and share
(love your husband’s response — although I think he’d prefer that kind of announcement in person next time!)
allison - y’all are funny & awesome. Thanks for the kind words this week. They mean the world to me. IT’s coming – very soon!! “Feather Bound” was officially born today. We are working on giving it it’s own personal & special space. Hopefully Sara will grace us with her presence soon & use some of her wordsmithing to do “it” the justice it deserves:o)
Alissa Ferullo - Such a beautiful song! Congrats and can’t wait to hear what you’ve got up your sleeve! =)
tynan - so curious as to what you have going on…photography related?
allison - yes, definitely photography related. you can go here: http://www.feather-bound.com for a teensy, tiny, little sneak peek . . . {this is where it pays to read the comments section!} There will be templates for photographers too!!! (I’m not sayin’ it will be soon!) Sara will “announce” it soon – HERE. So, hold your horses.
Erin - Just went to feather-bound, and I love it. I can see sara and allison all over the place already! Can’t wait to see the great thing(s) to come!!
Jennifer - I love this song. It has been my theme song this past year.
