#imbringingbirthdaysback

How many of you love getting a real card on your birthday,  not an electronic card, or the Face Book Wishes even though I love them also, but a real love to go to the mail box, open an envelope and wonder what great thing is inside?  I love getting birthday cards,  this year I only got 2 (I am sad).  Then I realized that I don't send out as many cards I have done in the past and I make them for a living. 

What can I do about this, I am joining a movement started by Stampin' Up!s own Shannon West #imbringingbirthdays back. You can join also.  Just send your friends birthday cards, really to goodness birthday cards.

To make this even better e-mail me your birth date and address to send a card and I will send you a card for your birthday.  I can't guarantee it will arrive exactly on your birthday but I will mail it the month your birthday is.  Click here to e-mail me your information.

I can’t wait to get started.

Happy Birthday to you all.

Grandma's Rocking Chair - February 14, 2016 - Valentine's Day

Well today is Valentine's Day.  Some people like my oldest daughter just hate this day.  She broke up with her only boyfriend and it is still hard on her.  I on the other hand love Valentine's Day.  Not just because I have a great husband which I do but it is so nice to celebrate love.  Any type of love.

I believe in God's Love, God Loves everyone, the good and the bad.  He gives us all the chance to live His love.

I believe in the love of a Parent for a child no matter how the child and parent came to be.



I believe in the love of brothers and sisters.



I believe in the love of friends.


I believe in the love of husband and wife.

I believe in the love of boyfriends and girlfriends, boyfriends and boyfriends, and girlfriends and girlfriends.

I believe in the love of people who just met.

I believe in the love of those who help others.

I hope you all have a very special Valentine's Day.
