Season of Change {bundle} Digital Scrapbook Freebie

When you are young your memories are faded and you cannot quite picture what your parents are like. And I think at some point you realize that you are right now where your parents were when you first remember them. Its a strange feeling. My mom had her first child at 28 and so did I. My first child is 4 and I feel like I can remember my 4 year old self remembering my 32 year old mom. Its kind of a strange feeling. And it puts into motion thoughts of what life will be like in the coming years. Soon I will be my 38 year old mom parenting my 10 year old daughter and 7 year old son. And then 45, 55, etc. What will life look like? How will I adapt to these changes? Will I have these moments where I realize that life is suddenly changed? Or will it happen so gradually I won't realize it? What happens when my kids are all grown? My thoughts just seem to run away from me.

Recently I have watched my Mom and Aunt and Uncle struggle with the care of my Grandmother and then lose her. She lived a long beautiful life, but it is still difficult. It makes me think of what will happen when I am in their shoes? How will I cope? And soon it will be my daughter in their shoes. Its scary to think about all that. Even more recently I lost my Uncle to a life long illness. His death was unexpected. He had been sick before, he held on and he always made it through. None of us were prepared. That puts thoughts into my head of what if I won't live as long as my grandmother. What if my number will be up sooner than expected? Am I really living the life I should to be? Should I relax more, work harder, work less, etc? And then I breathe a sigh of relief and remember that ultimately this is all in God's hands. Nothing I do(or don't do) can change the day my work here is done. That I should relax and focus on the important things in life: my faith and family and doing the work God has set me here to do. So this collection is inspired by the last year or so of life. I feel a Season of Change coming. Do you? This kit is perfect for you!

LONG overdue update

So I have been busy designing and not much time for blogging in my schedule. Between chasing after my 2 year while trying to paint my little illustrations, I'm sure you can understand. Life just got a little bit busier too! I made it into the So you Think You Can Design competition at Digiscrapaddicts. I found out on Saturday that I made that first cut! Woot. Our first challenge was to choose one of 4 palletes and to create a kit from it. I chose this pallete:

I've been painting pretty much nonstop since Sunday. And thanks to an absessed tooth had time in the wee hours to paint(since it hurt too much to sleep). Thankfully that is all taken care of! Maybe my next kit will be a dentist one!

Here is my kit for the challenge:
