Feeling Crafty

Okay, on occassion I feel inspiration to do something "crafty." And no, I'm not referring to my usual ideas about craftiness, such as getting into trouble...but I'm talking about "Martha Stewart" type crafty.
 
I was feeling inspired to do a fall floral arrangement for church. I picked up what I needed, and this morning I put it together. This is the finished product. Now, I must tell you, that I am pleasantly pleased with how it's turned out. I actually think I'm going to keep it for a centerpiece on my own table, and do another one for the church. If I'm just fooling myself into thinking I have talent, and I really don't, please keep that opinion to yourself. I've always been told I'm "too sensitive." ha!
If you think I'm sensitive, you should meet my 4 year old...I was telling someone the other day that I am saddened by the fact that I have a 4 yr. old daughter that lives in chronic pain. "Ow, I hurt my toe, Ow, I hurt my leg, Ow, I pinched my finger, Ow, my nose hurts,"...and the list goes on and on. How does one live life in such continual pain. I'm not overly sympathetic either...I usually tell her, "well, I guess if you hurt that bad, then you should go to bed." When I hear those words escape from my mouth, only one thought comes to mind, "I'm sounding more and more like my own mother every day." I love you mom...
