A "Word" for the New Year

Some of you may know this, others of you that are new over here, may not. I have another little blog where I share more of "me". It's a place where I share my thoughts on life, and God, and on our relationship with Him. I like to say "it's not your grandmother's Bible Study.", because it's real, and it's relevant, and hopefully not "preachy". Just some insight from God's Word for our daily lives.

I'd been away from it for six months due to my husband's illness, but God has been nudging me this last week to post. So, I'm just letting you know that I'm still posting over there, even though I've been on "break" for awhile. If you read my post here on Common Ground about "The year that was...2012", then I share some of those thoughts on this first post of the New Year. This is just a little invitation, hope you'll come by and get to know who I am on a little deeper level. I have a whole other life than taking pictures of pretty little things.

Welcome to The Marketplace

Hi Everyone, are you back in the groove? Christmas decor put away, kids back in school, resolutions made and being kept? I think this week is the unofficial week of "Business As Usual". After Christmas and New Year's it only takes me a minute to start thinking about Valentine's Day. OK, I'm the original "Holiday Junkie". So here are a few things that I found from last week that caught my attention.

The Sponsor Spotlight is on Christie Scibior today and her wonderful watercolor paintings and prints. As I browsed her Etsy Shop I wanted to share just a few of her pieces that would be perfect for a nursery or child's room. The soft colors and precious little figures of children and animals will have you conjuring up thoughts of storybook characters of yesteryear.
