My Bio
Welcome!

Take a look around and don't forget to say hi! :)

I'm currently working hard toward becoming an elementary school teacher (my #1 passion) -- I've been taking classes, volunteering as a Girl Scout leader, studying for the CSETs, volunteering at an elementary school, and working two part-time jobs (I just landed a third, yay!). In between all of this, I try to remember to BREATHE and make some time to get away from the hustle and bustle of day-to-day life. In these moments, I dive into another passion of mine -- creating. Whether I'm crocheting, sewing, sculpting, drawing, or painting, the act of creating something unique and special is rejuvenating and rewarding. I've fallen head over heels with amigurumi (the Japanese art of crocheting/knitting cute, anthropomorphic creatures) for a few years now, and the process of designing/creating new soft sculptures has brought me great happiness. Each creation means a lot to me, so I hope that the time and love I put into my work really shine through. :)

I've dreamed of opening my own little online shop for years, and I'm finally making that dream a reality!!! "Making Dreams a Reality" seems to be my life theme for 2012. :) I've embarked on an exciting adventure, one that could not be possible without the support and encouragement from my family, friends, and all of the amazing people in the online community. Again and again, thank you for everything.

Thank you for visiting, and more important, thank you for being a part of this adventure.

Cheers!

Josephine

Hello! This happens WAY too often -- time just flies by way too quickly. First and most important, I hope you've all been doing exceptionally well!  What have you been up to?  PLEASE UPDATE ME! :D Things have been insane during these last three months!  Any of you who follow me on other websites probably already know that I've been really busy. :P  For the sake of brevity, here's a list of updates: - I started my Etsy shop (http://www.etsy.com/shop/amorningcupofjo) in April!  It's not in full gear yet, but that will be changed very soon. - I launched a Facebook Fan Page for A Morning Cup of Jo Creations (https://www.facebook.com/amorning
