Wishing you a restful Sunday ~

1 Thessalonians 4:11-12
11 Make it your ambition to lead a quiet life, to mind your own business and to work with your hands, just as we told you, 12 so that your daily life may win the respect of outsiders and so that you will not be dependent on anybody.

A drawing I sketched when I was a young girl

You should consider writing and illustrating a children's book, Dawn. Let that talent shine :)

Dawn,
You chose an appropriate Scripture to sum up your life and it does reflect Him. Thanks for being a light in the land of blog. Blessings dear one.

P.S. Love the sketch, she is very reminiscent of a Holly Hobby character yet she easily would fit into the world of the late Tasha Tudor. She is precious.

Thank you for the Scripture and the sketch! You captured a 'gentle spirit' in your drawing and I love how you already knew to mix dots and plaids.
