Sorry for the delay in posting but life has been a little crazy around here the last several days. My 81 yr. old mother in law who lives next door to me fell in her bathroom the 10th of January and broke her wrist and severely bruised her hip and back. She is slowly recovering from her physical injuries but psychologically she still has a long way to go. She seems to be afraid of staying alone in fear of falling again. My sister in law came to get her today so that she can watch her for a few days to give us a little break. If you're the praying kind, please remember her in your prayers tonight.

Here's a quick little card I created between loads of laundry today.
Deets: Cardstock: The Paper Co. Pattern paper: Sassafras Lass. Ribbon: Offray. Button: Bazzill
