I have so many things to be grateful for....A family that loves me, grandchildren, time for my passion (making cards)! As I get older I find I'm grateful for the miracles all around me...The beauty of the sunrise; a humming bird at the feeder, the love of a pet, the gentle patter of rain on my window, the warm gentle winds of summer and the time to be able to be amazed by them all!

Happy 2 year Blog Anniversary and a Happy Birthday to your daughter!
ReplyDeleteI am grateful for my family and friends who have supported me through a very difficult past few years. I had a major life change, which is changing again. My Mom was in need of my help, so I put my stuff in storage and I moved in with her to take care of her. It is challenging being a caretaker. My love of cardmaking has helped me, but there are only two places to shop for craft items here, so I have happily discovered the world of craft blogs. What a very talented, gifted group of designers out there. I had no idea. So, you all have helped me find inspiration for something I truly love. My family and friends love my cards, and my Mom enjoys watching me create! Thanks again.

Christine, congrats on your 2 yrs blog. I only found you a few months ago and love your work. Happy birthday to your daughter. I am grateful that God gave me two children to love and nurture. Being a mother is one of the most wonderful blessings that we are given. A few days ago, my daughter told me she was getting married. It seemed like just yesterday she was my little girl. So, my wish for you on your daughters birthday is to love every day that she is happy, sad, crabby or just being a teenager. It goes by too quickly. Hope you have a wonderful day.
