Spring is finally budding all over!

My back yard cherry tree and some wild tulips growing randomly!!! Also a pic of my future garden! This is only the first initial dig. We have to clean it out yet and begin adding manure for the deep bed technique we are trying this year. I'm so excited to get going on this project!!

More sketchy fun!

I am working on some cat ideas for a new doll. Also the idea of doing Alice in Wonderland, but putting her in other colors besides blue. I'm not sure I'm going to do an Alice, just playing with the idea. Here is a cat doll in the works:

Good Friday!

Isaiah 52
Yet it was our infirmities that he bore,
our sufferings that he endured,
while we thought of him as stricken,
as one smitten by God and afflicted.
But he was pierced for our offenses,
crushed for our sins;
upon him was the chastisement that makes us whole,
by his stripes we were healed.
We had all gone astray like sheep,
each following his own way;
but the LORD laid upon him
the guilt of us all.

Though he was harshly treated, he submitted
and opened not his mouth;
like a lamb led to the slaughter
or a sheep before the shearers,
he was silent and opened not his mouth.

Oppressed and condemned, he was taken away,
and who would have thought any more of his destiny?
When he was cut off from the land of the living,
and smitten for the sin of his people,
a grave was assigned him among the wicked
and a burial place with evildoers,
though he had done no wrong
nor spoken any falsehood.
But the LORD was pleased
to crush him in infirmity.

If he gives his life as an offering for sin,
he shall see his descendants in a long life,
and the will of the LORD shall be accomplished through him.

Christians! 
We are those descendants! 
Blessed be the Holy name of God!
