Happy Birthday...

To my brother, brother-in-law, and uncle.... 

Happy Birthday! 

(I got a little lazy... and all 3 guys got the same design. Hope they don't mind!)

The best and worst kind of card...

I understand that death is a part of life, but not a fun part. I have always struggled with the right words to say and so usually I avoid and say nothing. I am trying to get beyond that and send a card when someone has lost someone close to them....

I think they are the best and worst kind of card. They are meant to encourage during a time of sorrow. I have decided I do not like making sympathy cards, but will make them anyway.

"There's an opportune time to do things. a right time for everything on earth: A right time to birth and another for death... a right time to cry and another to laugh, a right time to lament and another to cheer..." Ecclesiastes 3 (The Message)

Happy Birthday to my dear sweet baby sister.... She is not so much a baby any more! She just started her senior year of college!!!  She has grown into a beautiful young woman with an even bigger heart. She has a contagious laugh and a smile to light up any room. 

I am glad to call her my SISTAH!!! 

Happy 1st Birthday!
