The sweets of my2sweets


Meet RB...the main reason that my2sweets came about.  It was because of her that I created my first my2sweets design.  It was a pink spiky daisy hairclip with wide brown crocheted headband.  Seems so long ago.  This is her almost a year ago in her MudPie tutu with the awesome giant pink tutu poofy I made to match it for her 3rd birthday party.  She is my number 1 model these days and now it's to the point that she asks to wear something I've made!  Big sister is more into the sparkly headbands and things for tweens, but from time to time she, too, desires to wear a flower or a bow to add just that special touch to her outfit.  For the most part my2sweets is a small business whose customers are friends, family, church family members, and folks who come by my booth twice a year at the local Rhea Lana Children's Consignment sale here in Searcy.  My Etsy shop has also seen customers shop from all over the US and Canada which is truly exciting! 


Now meet Soph, my senior sweet!  She's all about Upward cheer, American Girl Dolls, friends, and Awana!  She's the smartest little girl I've ever know and has the biggest heart I've ever been around!  Her love for the Lord and His word is amazing!  She amazes me weekly by her Awana verse-learning skills and her drive to serve God!  Now, don't get me wrong...she's not perfect, but she's pretty darn close ;)  She is a close second reason to why my2sweets began.  She was 5-1/2 when it came to be and she's helped me with ideas and creations since.  She hopes to, in her own words, "take over my2sweets" one day and that makes my heart smile!  I hope to pass down my sewing machine to her soon not only so she can learn to sew her own AGD clothes, but so I can move up to a more sophisticated, more expensive big-daddy machine!  She is probably the heart of my2sweets if I get down to the nitty-gritty.  RB is the drive behind it because I love to keep her decked out in my creations, and Soph gives me the encouragement to keep going when I think I can't anymore.  They are both the reason I even attempted to start my2sweets and until the day it is no more, they will continue to be!

Brand Spankin New Chapter in My Life

Where do I even start?  It's been two years since my last entry and wow, so much has changed in my life.  I guess I'll just start where my ADHD mind will take me and the first thing that comes to mind is this...I joined our local 10 Fitness gym not too long after my last entry.  I made new friends there, friends who I'd gone to church with for years, but new friendships with them.  After being at the gym a few times together my friend, Mandy, became my first ever gym partner.  Boy, we kicked it good.  We split the use of a personal trainer for about six months and then took on the training ourselves.  It was awesome to say the least!  But to explain that, I'll have to take you back to a much earlier time in my life...a time that was dark and quite frankly scary.  You can stop reading now if you want, or if you choose to go further, I want to warn you...I'm going to reveal some dark secrets from my past, secrets that I don't take lightly, but...

Waiting...Learning...Loving

I can't express how blessed I feel to be able to have my days free of medical transcription, y'all.  Every morning when I return from school drop off I have time to sit down and actually read my bible...not just a chapter, two if I'm lucky, but actually read and study .  There's even a new passion to do my Sunday School "homework" whereas before I just plain ole didn't do it.  I'm in Romans right now and it's almost like I'm reading it for the first time even though I've read it hundreds of times over the years.  I'm working on my third entire consecutive read-through of the bible.  When I finish reading it all the way through I just start over and do it again.  I want to keep God's word fresh in my mind and forever in my heart.  There may come a day, sadly, when in America it's illegal to keep a bible or perhaps all bibles will be destroyed.  I want to have as many verses and scriptures stored safely in my heart where no one ...

Seasons Change

It's been 10 months since my last entry and I have to wonder why...why has it been so long?  Maybe it's because life just gets so busy that I really can't find the time to sit down and type for pure release.  Yes, my regular job is a typing job, one that I've been doing for 20 years come this May (except I took a year off to sew my oats and work at Mother's Day Out and help my awesome husband with his home inspection business), but all in all, I've been typing over half my life now!  It's a job, so there are days when I literally hate to sit down at this computer and put my Beats on.  And, depending on what doctor comes up first thing in my morning, I'm either ready to snap someone's neck or I can actually squeeze out a little smile on my face because it's not a fast talker, foreign talker, food eater while he/she dictates, one who won't correct their obvious mistakes while talking...I can go on and on here.  But, the point was to emphasize h...
