It’s been two years since I felt God whispering to my heart about closing my business RubyLu Studio. As painful as the decision was, I knew I could trust God. I was spending night and day working on this business with very little time for me, let alone anyone else. I knew I wanted to be a super present Grandma to the baby who was on the way.
What I didn’t know was that God was preparing me to be there for my husband. He would be diagnosed with stage 4 Kidney Cancer with metastasis. We hopped on the cancer rollercoaster In July of 24 and we are still fighting like crazy today.
I just wanted to stop by and say hi as my heart is a little tender towards RubyLu as I reflect back on the decision I made. I haven’t forgot the precious time in my life which was RubyLu…..the creativity, the people, the wild ideas, and the connections. All of it.
I would also like to say I found a renewed passion for teaching. I ended up In 3rd grade at Justiss Elementary. I have built wonderful relationships with my students, I get to be creative In a different way, and am so supported by my co-workers.
I can’t do away with this fb page. I just can’t. What do I plan to do with RubyLu? I don’t know but one day it occurred to me that I am RubyLu. She is the creative side of me. A gift God has given me and she will never stop creating. But for now, I will love on my loved ones and be so grateful for the ones who are loving on us.
