Everything happens for a reason...

Wanna hear a cool story? So I recently got back in touch with one of my best friends from high school. I thank Facebook for being able to keep in touch with her, while she is in Michigan, and I'm in California. I've always been into art, painting and drawing, and recently, DeAnna, who I fondly called PP or Peppermint Patty sent me a present just because. Something she saw while vacationing, and sent to me. So thoughtful. So perfect. She has no idea what that little gift would lead to. It was two small canvas prints from a mixed media artist, Kelly Rae Roberts  I had never heard of her, and quickly became a fan. During the time the gift arrived, I was taking an online course about Mixed Media Art. My very first one. Now here is where Kelly Rae Roberts comes in. Not only is she an artist, but an E-book writer, and an amazing inspiration to me! I bought her books, have learned so much already and plan to open an Etsy store soon, to sell my art canvases. Little did PP know, that the gift she sent would possibly lead to a new opportunity for this Mom of two! I am thankful for being able to reconnect with my best friend, but also for every coincidence in my life, because as I know "Coincidences are God's way of remaining anonymous"
