7 (lovely) random things

1.i have a new project.

a new bed for ella.

i have some pretty great ideas...keep a look out for happy, little girl, splendor on this little reed life blog!

         

2. this is my camera.

a canon rebel T1i from costco: Christmas 2009

with the 50mm lens on my sidebar.

and a custom (stained) strap cover.

and a lost lens cap (don't worry joy, i will get another today...and the UV filter too).

3. i love reading.

4. i am wearing a side ponytail today.

5. i used to be a floral designer.

(i have been thinking about adding a little series on simple things to do with flowers on the reed life? whatdoyathink? would that be fun and useful? is there anything specific that anyone is curious about, that i can help with?)

6. my maiden name is laxson....just fyi.

7. one of the biggest things i grown in this year is not to always jump to conclusions from prior assumptions.

yah. 

pretty big. 

and i am still learning. 

but i feel like blogging has had a pretty big hand in that lesson.

i think a year ago i would have thought that online interactions were sorta questionable and less than desirable.

but God has opened my little "know it all" eyes up....like He does.

he shows me how he will ALWAYS provide for me.

and usually He uses ways that i don't expect.

liiiiike the internet.

WHY couldn't he allow me to make a friend thought the computer?!

HOW could i think that His ways are limited to face to face friendship for encouragement (not that i don't need that too :)

is ANYTHING too hard for HIM?

i have been blessed by this blog this year.

that means you. 

yah, you sitting at your computer right now....oh wait, is that your phone?

you better not be reading your iphone while driving! (i NEVER seldom do that!)

God has used you to bless me.

thanks for reading.
