Have a Wonderful Sunday!

It's a rainy Sunday morning here in Southeast Kansas, but it's cool temperature wise.  I love it!

I am staying home today with middle child (long story), but the rest of the family is buzzing around preparing for church. 

I'm preparing for a good week ahead.  Monday I pick up my first pair of bi-focals.  Yes, I've hit the age of needing them.  I have made it to adulthood!! (grins)  Put those with my increasing white hairs, and I may actually not get carded for looking under 40 when I buy glue or spray paint.  Tuesday the oldest of the kids turns 18.  He's my stepson, but I've raised him for 13 years.  The first day of fall is Monday (yay!), and then our city's Fall Festival is this coming Saturday, with various activities through out the week. 

This last Friday, it was a bit of a sad day.  Not bad, but still a little sad.  My biological son (17) has had special ed services since he was 3 years old.  Friday was our last IEP meeting.  He graduates this year, then moves on to day and residential services with a local agency that works with adults with intellectual and physical disabilities.  I've known for a long time this was coming, so it's not a surprise.  It's the finality of this season of life and the beginning of a new season, that my boy is almost done with school and moving on to adulthood.  He will always need supports, I will be his legal guardian for the rest of my life or until I can't do it anymore (then moves on to his dad).  This is a good season for him, he's ready to move on from school, start a job (with supports), earn money for the things he really wants, etc. 

This weekend I finished up my new website, and started sewing on things to add in.  I'm so excited, I can't wait to get items in and formally launch it.  I absolutely love the floral design backgrounds and the feminine look of it.  I've been working on my hand stitching and applique skills in order to add pretty extras to the items I make, and working at machine applique skills as well.  The whole concept for the site is to make available feminine attire at affordable prices, even gift cards available.  In my "to make" bucket, I have out plus sized jeans to make into skirts too...I am doing all sizes from newborn to plus.  I'm so excited!!  I can't wait to show you!! 

I hope you have a wonderful Sunday!  If you are able, head out to your local church and fellowship with your brothers and sisters in Christ. 

Have a great day!
