ODBDSLC60 A Recipe

Happy Tuesday to you! It seems like only yesterday, it was Monday! :-)

Before I get into today's card, I would like to mention a special prayer request. My sister-in-law passed away Sunday evening after a long struggle with Alzheimer's disease. Thelma was a wonderful woman and she will be greatly missed. She spent the last few years with her daughter. I know this will put a large hole in her heart. As many of you know, the caregiver for an Alzheimer patient has stresses we can only imagine. It is with His love and care that Thelma's family will heal. Thank you in advance for your prayers! With Him all things are possible!

This little blog has proved to be such a blessing to me. I have made so many friends and have enjoyed each and every moment. Thank you so much to everyone who stops by and takes a few moments out of your busy day to browse and comment. I appreciate your kind words.

Very nice!
sorry about your SIL. My aunt took care of my grandmother for a few years or so (don't remember how long) but it got to where she couldn't do it anymore and had to put her in a nursing home.

Surprise!!! It's Best Bunny!
