The Journey-2 Years Later

Between the every day activities and to-dos of homeschooling, housework, actual work (facepainting, projects and so on) and then speech and doctor visits, bible study and such; I guess it's time to give you all an update of what is going on!

2 years ago my personal journey changed.  It got redirected.  God has such a funny way of orchestrating all His handy work.  What's funny to me is that the last post on here to you all actually weighs a very large amount of significance to this particular journey!!! I didn't even know what my last post was til I decided to see if this blog was still up and running tonight.  Love it.

The last almost 2 full years now I have been seeking how God is wanting to use me.  I discovered in that time what it meant to believe Him and what He says about me.  I have learned and embraced my identity that He created, not what others labeled me or that I participated in agreeing with believing I was for the last 30 plus years of my existence. I have discovered the spiritual gifts He has strengthened and the ones that He occasionally pulls out for me to work on.  I have had lots of down days trying to stay motivated through a sometimes pretty harsh season of pruning.  The best thing out of all of this though has to be the closeness that has occurred during this journey with my Father who made me and my husband he gave me and my kids he entrusted me to take care of for Him.

So, what does this all have to do with Aimee Of All Trades?  EVERYTHING.  I wouldn't have this if it wasn't for Him providing me with the different skills it takes to do the face painting or custom shoes or the rest of it.  All of this is because it opened a door to even more trades. (oh boy! more to come! I am sure you are stoked!)

LET'S TALK OILS

Through all of this I have been learning, essential oils have been one of the most exciting additions.  I am so beyond blessed by them and all I have learned about them through the last 2 years!!!

Another business venture?  Yes and No.  I have been waiting for something I could use to help others for anything and everything.  This is that something!  Our family has been so blessed by the results of learning about them and utilizing them correctly.  My hubs is still being worked on.... He is a tough cookie on natural remedies.... BUT OUR KIDS on the other hand beg for them because of how well they have worked for us.

So I would say this is a great addition to Aimee of All Trades and I am excited to get to help you find out more if you would like in the future!
