  15. I love them thanks for sharing. You really have found a way to stay creative while being a new mom. I know it is hard I ran a cake decorating business out of my home when my daughter was just a baby and it was crazy. Thank you for keeping me inspired.

    I love the sketches, and the fact that you keep an hour for you and you're art! It can be really hard to do that when new babies may be so tiring! You rock!
    I met you last year at Donna Downey's Inspired and you completely amaze me...
    Thank you for all the inspiration and beautiful art!!

    Hugs

  29. Love the flowers it helpeed perk me up from the winter browns we have here in Nebraska. We went to a movie yesterday and a brave mom brought her 7 week old along with a three and six year old. They were so good. Just the outing all needed. Have fun with your little one and so glad you are finding time for your art.
