I want a daughter!

So, one of my good friends is out of town and I have the privilege of watching her adorable daughter, Haiyden.
Every time I have a little girl in the house it changes the atmosphere dramatically. My boys suddenly become sickly sweet, tending to her every whim...I think what great big brothers they would be to a baby sister...sigh!
I know the grass always looks greener on the other side...girls are emotional and I'm sure our daughter would be the little diva (if she's anything like me), and they have this ability to reach octaves I never thought were possible (it sends shivers up my spine just thinking about it). But, I also know, that they are so, so sweet, stinkin' adorable in their little dresses, and something that my heart desires. So, until that day comes, and it will, I'll keep dreaming and praying for her...it's all in God's hands anyway!

My first blog...eeek!


OK, so In an effort to "network" to get the word out about KLSreflections, I've started a blog. I"m not extremely talented with computers or technology in general.......but hey, why not!

So, a little about me...I'm a stay-at-home mom of four sons, five if you count my husband! Honestly, I have no idea how that happened. I grew up one of three girls! I have no idea what to do with boys! Frankly, most of the time I am shocked and appalled at the things they do! I've gotten very comfortable with subjects like poop and farts, I don't mind watching Star Wars, and I can even handle bugs! A far cry from the prissy little girl my husband married!

One of my ways to escape the chaos is to create. I love to make anything from jewelry to brownies! I crawl into my cave, tune out the WWF that's being refereed by my husband in the living room, and just let my imagination go wild! I love it!

Recently I started KLSreflections.etsy.com, I am having so much fun! It's so satisfying to know that what I love creating other people love to wear!

I started out with a few beads and some really cruddy pictures about two months ago....but, LOOK AT ME NOW! My pictures are turning out awesome and I've even made enough money for new supplies! I only pray that I will be able to continue to use this gift that God has given me to create and bless others!
