I won!!!

VAN GOGH HAS BEEN DEFEATED!!!!
Seriously, I almost cried. Almost. LOL.
4yrs, 7 highlighters, 121 colors and 87,400 stitches and 3 needles.
Starry Night.







Sorry the photo is not very good. It's rainy and overcast and good lighting is just hiding. I soooo cannot wait to get this stretched and framed. 

 On another note... (are you surprised?)... I turned 37  27 this past weekend. Momma & Daddy sent me some advice for my birthday that I think is worth sharing...

A Little Guide to Life

BE good to yourself.
There are some things everyone deserves - 
LOVE, respect, time to recharge.
NEVER SETTLE FOR LESS.

Seek out your DREAMS.
Start small.
Take it as it comes. 
Even a butterfly has to inch along
before getting it's WINGS. 

LISTEN to your heart.
Trust your gut.
If the way seems unclear,
LOOK WITHIN YOU. 

Let your voice be heard. 
You have a story to tell and opinions that count.
AND a difference to make. 

Stay CURIOUS.
Wonder. 
Take every opportunity to learn.
Knowledge IS a gift.
It will take you places.

Hold on to what's important
Let worries go.
No matter how you look at it,
some things just don't make sense.
The way you choose to carry on is what really matters.

And when you make that list of what you want in life,
make another list of what you've got.
Be sure to start with all the things that make you a BEAUTIFUL person.
THERE ARE SO MANY.

Most of all, 
REMEMBER:
You're loved ALWAYS


Soo... I say this directly to all of you lovely people... no matter what path you may be on in this life... head the words of my wise parental unit. 

Go and be magnificent!!
XOXO
