Free Spirit Calista

There's something special about this Cuddlebug.
Her stance is just adorable; but you can also see a bit of sassy strength in it too.
I love that.
I'm cute, strong, and can achieve anything attitude.

I took special care while coloring her. 
I wanted her just perfect for an art journal layout I have in mind. I can't wait to fully complete a set of pages for her.

Stronger Today



I've been a little MIA with my blogging the past few days. Honestly, I've sat at my computer multiple times to write a post but I never got it done. I've been super stressed and have just been having a difficult couple of days.

 Last week, at a decently crowded store, I got assaulted. I left the incident physically unharmed but it shook me emotionally. It scared me to be honest. The woman kept trying to reach around me and grab at my son. It was so unreal and unusual. The attack came out of nowhere, I was not prepared for someone to be right on top of me. And I've spent the last week trying to deal with what happened.

At first I was just scared altogether. I was super over protective with my child. I felt the need to be close to him every second. It took a few days for me to realize that I handled the situation well and my son is safe so everything will be okay. After that realization I had to let go of my fear, so I drove back up to the store and walked every isle. I purchased nothing, I just wanted to be rid the fear that was now attached to one of my favorite stores. It was difficult. I kept expecting someone to jump out at me in every isle.

Feeling stronger with the decision to take my life back; I looked up some empowering inspirational quotes and made a beautiful girl in my art journal. Art truly is wonderful therapy.


 I wanted a strong head shot. Something that spoke to my heart over the entire situation. 
Something that reminded me that I am strong.
