Creativity have I none!
My mother is very artistic. She decorated cakes for the public for many years. She could draw anything that anybody wanted on their cake. The girls and I went down this past weekend to help her move, and as we were going through some of her stuff I can't tell you how many pages of paper we found that she had doodled pictures of her grandkids. She is a master seamstress (in my opinion!). Prom and wedding dresses weren't even started on until the day before the event! She is a jack of all trades. If it's broken, she'll fix it instead of buying a new one, which is what I do! WHY DIDN'T I GET ANY OF THOSE GENES??? I am working on a poster for our fall ladies' retreat and it just won't come together! Frustrations are raging high!! I was trying to save a little money, but I think I may have to pay someone to come up with a decent layout. I hate putting out stuff that looks like it's half-done or low-budget production. I know what I want it to look like (well kind of) but I can't get it from my head to the paper or computer in this case. Well, I better get back to it. I am hoping to get this to the printers on Monday!

You are creative but in a different way. I think we all wish we had the traits we admire in others, but God made us the way we are. It's hard to accept, but it's the truth. I admire your leadership qualities and that you are such a diligent pray-er.
I wish I was more like your mother...to be that handy at so many things would be wonderful! I'm a doodler but that's about all I can do when it comes to art. Oh and I can color, but I don't think that counts. All I know to do is research, play music, and plan stuff.
I'm sure you will come up with something wonderful and it will look great. You are a great leader.
