Wow, wow, WOW! What a fun week we had at Old home week!
Thankyou so much to Patrick at Creative Rebel Studio and the wonderful Connie Spencer for capturing some photos for me this week while I was face painting 🙂🙌
I was so happy to meet some new friends and get to talk to some old ones who I haven’t seen in a long time!
I meet a lot of people during these events battling so many different things: mental health, financial insecurities, post partum, physical or mental disabilities, cancer, etc. sometimes I just meet people who just want a good chat and some laughs!
Being able to give them five minutes to sit and feel comfortable enough to tell me even a sliver of what they’re going through makes me feel humbled and even more appreciative of the life I have every day. It pushes me to be kinder, more empathetic, and to live in the moment more. It also helps me to keep doing what I do, no matter how much I may want to stop sometimes or how much I think my face paintings aren’t good enough.
I couldn’t be more appreciative, and proud, of each and every one of you.
From the bottom of my heart, thank-you for all the support and love 🥰❤️
