Thank you Candy




I would like to take the opportunity to thank everyone who visits my blogs and takes the time to leave me such sweet comments. It's been almost a year since I started this blog. I originally started it as a way to keep in touch with my daughter and who was off in college in FL.

Most of you know that my daughter was killed in a car accident. It's been 6 months since the accident and I miss her so much every second of everyday. I think the one thing that has kept me going is my love of this hobby as well as all of the support that I've gotten from so many people who belong to this wonderful group.

Cindy's 24th birthday is April 6th. So in her honor and as a way to say thank you I've decided to get some candy together for you. Please leave a comment below as well as your blog address if you have one.

I have no idea how to do Mr. Linky so I will put all the names in a jar and have my husband pull the winning name.I would love it if you chose to follow my blog and post this candy on your sidebar but it isn't necessary to win.

Thank you again for all the love and support that I've gotten from this group. You have no idea how much you've touched my heart.

    Oh Julie, I am so sorry. What a huge hole is left in your heart. I will certainly add you to my prayers. What a thoughtful thing to do with the blog candy. Thanks so much. And before I go I have to tell you that I looked around here and you do amazing work! Your title "born to stamp" is certainly correct.

    Julie, I wasn't aware of your loss either. I can't imagine losing a child and still have a desire to craft as beautifully as you do. You're an incredibly strong person. It's nice to know that our Maggie group has help to support you and your family.

    I don't know how you find the strength to deal with this Sweetie - just looking at Cindy's beautiful face and realizing the chasm her passing has left in your family is more than the soul can bear. Love and light to you and yours on this anniversary of her birth - my own sweet girl was born on April 3rd - I will be thinking of you then and saying a prayer for you for a peaceful heart.
    Hugs,
