The Collaborative Happiness Project...

Hi everyone,

Finally, it seems likes forever have gone by and I'm finally back..

Bringing my blog back to life...

My apologies for not progressing with me Ninot 

I really appreciate your understanding.. 

It has been an amazing journey with wedding bells included , I couldn't have ask for more :) 

The Love of My Life... :)

Apart from a long obstacle along the way 

that kept me from getting back into my crafts..

I miss it so much and having Crafting Withdrawals..

The truth, I had a relapse. I live my day-to-day life with SLE or better known as Lupus.

I have been in remission for quite sometime and now its back. 

It's just another draw back but that doesn't mean I will stop living.

I have chosen LIFE :) and just need to re-think my strategies to embrace life..

It has been too long to get back on my feet and I won't let this pull me back...

This explains the constant delays in trying to get myself together because honestly sometimes, getting out of bed seems like the hardest and feeling overwhelmingly fatigue at the same time doesn't help.

A quick shoutout to my girls for their love even through the worst of days

I've learned to embrace the pain. Embrace the solitude. Embrace the constantly changing plan of my day as my pain and energy levels fluctuate. I surrender. I simply trust that whatever is in front of me at any given moment, He is in the center of it.

This quote is written by a dear friend I met in the blog world..Sara is a beautiful person inside out..

I thank God I found her here cause she has given me so much more 

hope to continue living and choosing joy.. I'm so glad our paths crossed..

I am Inspired by The Collaborative Happiness Project by KIKKI.K and Gretchen Rubin's book

A Garden of Hope...

Presenting a Garden of Hope....

Finally a bunting for my own use..using Cath Kidson fabrics.. so in love with the colors and the patterns.

Bias strip is actually a Liberty fabric from Calico & Ivy. Managed to sneak in a purchase before going for my holiday.

This is inspired by my new year's resolution to continue 

having FAITH, to be HOPEful for the best and giving out as much LOVE as  I can..

and my new chapter in life...

Close up...

My love for you will never ends..

We love because He first loved us :) 1 John 4:19

Until then,

my love to all..

Daddy's little girl...
