I love my "sister" Tracy, she has always been a gift and that has to be because of the wonderful women in her life.
Thinking of you and keeping you and your family in my prayers for peace.

Thank you so much for your kind thoughts and prayers. I know from Tracy that you are a very special and loving woman, with a wonderful family. Mom would have loved to meet you. She encouraged me very much in creating your "red thread" throw, although she fussed at me that I was making it much too big :). And she LOVED getting to know Sofie and seeing pictures of her in her new home!
I appreciate your thoughts and prayers. Reply | Reply with quote | Quote
