Wow! I have been so busy. Most of the past week has been spent designing a Beaded Flower Collection for my shops, Evie J's Jewell Box on Etsy, Facebook and, since this afternoon, Folksy. It has certainly kept me busy but has been so worth it.
My beautiful Beaded Flower Collection is now on display and ready to order. It took a while to get it right and then create it but I finally got there. Between designing, creating and the children I've almost forgotten to do anything else, as my oldest made me realise when he came down a few evenings ago asking if was going to go to bed. I said in a moment and his response was "well it is midnight, you started on that halfway through watching The Simpsons, don't you think you should get some sleep?". Oops! Hadn't realised I'd been at it for that long. I guess that is what happens when you have a job you really enjoy which I am lucky enough to be able to say I do. Some dreams can come true...provided you are willing to forgo the sleep and put in the effort and money.
Luckily, my son saw the funny side, well, he did in the morning anyway. My children may be young but I am lucky that even they support me. They may hate the very sight of my computer but they do understand that it is necessary and I am very grateful that they often play so nicely together so I can do the job I love, even when they are home. Following dreams doesn't just mean having support from other adults, our childrens love and support is also invaluable.
Until next time,
Yvonne Jones
