Project Complete: Emoji Soap, YouTube and a Mommy & Me Project


This is the weekend!  My 10-year old and I are making soap.  Not ordinary soap, but soap shaped like emojis! This is the YouTube we are using to guide us. We visited the local Michael's  to get supplies, searched the web for our favorite emoji's and are all set. I'm doing the happy face with the heart eyes, and she is doing the one with the winking eye. We have watched the video at least 6 times.  I'm still not sure I trust the perky hostess.  Her make-up is flawless, but somehow I feel we may miss a step. Oh, well I will let go of doing it perfectly and allow the time to be about connecting with this precious gift of a young girl who God has made my daughter.

I named her Kinaya, it's a word that means complete.  I gave her that name after carrying her to full term.  Carrying her to full term was a first for me ( I lost my first baby and my oldest daughter was born more than 2 months premature.)

And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ.
Philippians 1:6

I attach this scripture to her birth, life and her name. Every time I call her name, I am affirming this promise in her life and even in my own.  And this weekend, Emoji soap is the object of our Project Complete.  I'll post a follow-up soon on how the soap turned out.
