Welcome, Fredward!

Meet Fredward.On Instagram, Queen Funko accounts give all the love sharing charming little stories of their mini Queenies.Some are even custom made(Love the older Brians).

I will post some IG stories in upcoming posts.
Freddie (Fredward) Mercury.

First Day of Spring

Cherry blossom tree in Springtime with light blue sky Today is the first day of Spring.  As of late, I have presented a lot of dark, weighty subject material. I thought it was time for something positive and lighter. While Winter serves as a cushion and break from the outside sensory world, it also renews me for the next season. Spring helps me to appreciate the present a little more, as Summer can be tough with kids being off of school and setting off fireworks. Here is to the present. I also want to take the time to thank the Lord for always being with me, no matter how dark things get.
