Spring and Changes!
I always look forward to spring, especially after the winter we had this year (yes, California did have a winter this year! YAY)! These changing in the seasons always remind me of the verse Ecclesiastes 3:1-8
“For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven: A time to be born, and a time to die;
a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted; a time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;
a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to morn, and a time to dance; a time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together;
a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing; a time to seek, and a time to loose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;
a time to tear, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak; a time of love, and a time of hate;
a time of war, and a time for peace.”
It was also refreshing to hear Mrs. Botkin reading it aloud as well, while my mother and I where listening to the “Evenings with Victoria Botkin” as it started this Monday! My mother and I cannot wait till next Monday to hear her speak, it has been so encouraging to both of us!
Also with the changing of the seasons, I will be slowly adding a few things to my web-site/etsy shop! I have already added one new item:
The crocheted All-Puropse Wash Cloth!
These hand-made crocheted cloths (made by my myself, or my mother)are the perfect cloth for many uses from washing dishes, to cleaning your face and body! Now that I use them, I cannot live without them! I sell them in color-coordinated sets of two and each have a beautiful scalloped edge to give it a pretty look!
Here are a couple photos of them below!


Feel free to stop by my shop HERE or on the side of our blog!

So how do you listen to the evenings with Victoria Botkin?? Like, is it online or what? It sounds neat.
Miss Kim~ Yes, it is online! You pay for the (I think) 6 weeks (every Monday at 6:00 PM CA time) but my dad is the one who sets it up, so I could not tell you how he does it!
It is wonderful so far, and I am sure it will get better as the weeks progress! Here is a link to sign up if you are interested! http://westernconservatory.com/evb
