First things First

     This is my very first blog post!  I am excited to have this up and running and looking forward to capturing and embracing everyday of my son, my life, my dreams, and my jewelry and crafts.
     I try to create something everyday, if I don't I feel as if I'm starving my body of a certain premium fuel it needs to run properly.  Jewelry is always something I feel proud of.  Although, in the past 3 days I spent IV's nap time putting together his scrapbook of which I got 12 pages completed!! This is an accomplishment I must pat myself on the back for.  My fiance and I have nearly 1000 photos of the life and times of IV, capturing moments we will never get back.  I applaud Anthony (my fiance) for keeping up with the photos as well as he does.  I often get so caught up in bottles, laundry, diapers, keeping him simply entertained...and the list goes on and on and on. 
     I have been blessed to have had the first 10 months of IV's life spent home taking care and loving every second of him.  He was born on October 7, 2010 and from that moment on he has been my inspiration.  In August I will be back at LSU full-time studying Studio Art with a concentration in Ceramics.  I've never actually touched a pottery wheel, much less know the process.  the closest I have gotten to ceramics is play dough, as a kid.  Needless to say, I can not wait to start!! I have no doubt I will love every second of it because I have not found a medium in my 3 years of studying art that I did not like.  Although I do prefer to create 3-D art as opposed to drawing/painting.
     I will upload plenty of pictures of my jewelry as I make it and of course, IV!! I think I am going to like blogging!

Until next time, with love
Amanda
