It has certainly been awhile since I’ve joined in on the One Word Project over at Shutter Sisters.   Even though words are failing me and life is overwhelming me, one word seems doable, and the word for January is create:

1. to cause to come into being, as something unique that would not naturally evolve or that is not made by ordinary processes. 2. to evolve from one’s own thought or imagination, as a work of art or an invention.

And don’t you love how beautiful this creation is?  Made for me by my incredibly talented sister, who can somehow manage to take care of a 3 year-old and 2 month-old while letting her creative juices flow.  I am so looking forward to taking this little purse out on the town!
