Overwhelming

Granma passed away over the weekend. I cried twice. Somehow I felt extra sensitive and would easily be touched by my own thoughts.

I had a busy weekend with a few gathering -back to back at times - where I met various groups of friends, mostly those who've experienced motherhood. We shared both happy and sad news from my side. I got home quite exhausted, in a heaty living room and the non-so-exciting 6pm local tv channels.

God...please keep me strong and wise in choosing the activities around me while preparing the little life You're assigning inside me...

The P-word?

So my monthly lady thingie hasn't come for the longest time - it must've been over two weeks now. We decided to do a few pregnancy tests on sticks at home. I've never used such things ever before and I got fascinated by the slowly appearing purple line, which indicated that I'm pregnant!

Really?

I mean, it would be the best, perfect news EVER! I'm turning into the big 30 this year. Everyone and literally EVERYONE has asked me about the p-word topic at some stage in our conversations!

But am I ready for it?

To be honest, I have not changed much or turned into a "typically" good wife who cooks, cleans and obeys. I'm still like myself from years ago. A drama queen who's a bit spoilt I would say. I still argue with my poor husband whenever opportunity arises. I still get awkward and clueless around kids, especially the little ones.

Could I really be pregnant?

God, do You think I'm ready for such responsibility?
I mean, I'd be more than honoured if You pick me. But there is a lot of doubts and questions around how I'd be as a mother. As a parent! Bringing up a whole new person in this world!

God... Please keep me strong; and guide me to whatever You want me to be...
I exist to worship You and to follow Your light...

nai&Friends

So!
I've decided to start something BIG.
I'm going to run a business or a brand, where I spread positivity and happiness through canvas paintings!

So far so good. I've got my facebook pahe out there. Last time I checked there were 92 likes!
I've ordered 50 business cards to start with.
I've set up a new email account for this.

So the brand is pretty much established.
Tick!

Next step would be to approach external parties. Art markets... possible spaces to showcase my art piece.... people to give my artwork as a gift to..... a youtube video on painting tips...
Ahhh I'm excited.

I love having a project like this. It helps me to feel like I am going forward.
