Sorry for the lapse in posting - we've been pretty occupied at the McG household the past couple of months. I had a relatively major surgery on March 18th for fertility issues and Sean completed his first hectic semester of teaching + research. God showed Himself to be a shield, a sweet savior, and a tremendous source of strength to us this semester. We are very hopeful about the future because we trust in the compassionate and gracious God, who is slow to anger and abounds in lovingkindness and truth! He has good things in store for us ... naturally we have opinions on what these things should be and exactly how they should "play out," but we trust Him and surrender our strong will to His almighty will. His yoke is easy and His burden is light!
One thing that I've enjoyed doing the past few months is crafts. Not the popsicle kind, but hard core crafting. I'll tell ya that Hobby Lobby has made trillions off of people like me! Recent crafting began with painting - no pictures taken because they stink, then it shifted to cross-stitching for the niece & nephew, onto embroidery, and then (to save the best for last) sewing! The sewing machine is Sean's Grandmommy's, and I've convinced myself that it misses her skillful hands. Sometimes I wonder if it sighs when I enter the room.... Every once in a while, it burrs, "That a girl - way to sew that seam!" (Yes, I sometimes personify inanimate objects.) Here are a few pics to share - after all, what would a blog post be without a few pics? (the answer is b.o.r.i.n.g.)
