Seed of Faith

C.N.T.Royal Oak, MI

The story

The goggles represent my only fear (water), and if I could defeat that, I would learn to swim. The pink ball is my stress ball. (Kids, husband, illness) The white flower represents my grandmother, who passed before I could show her my most prized gifts (my talent in music, my kids, husband and how if she was here. I don't think I would be in this situation. The dress represents whatever I put on, I feel beautiful. The necklace is my favorite jewellery (chokers). The lips, represent what I get the most compliments on. The shoes represent my crazy shoe game. Don't let the arts and crafts fool you!
