Today is my 25th day of Christmas, it is also my 25th wedding anniversary. This year has brought some changes to my life so I won’t be celebrating this landmark with my husband but I do feel that there is much to celebrate. So my children and I are going out for a nice dinner tonight and celebrate that these 25 years brought them into my life and they are my true joy. I have learned that you never know from day to day what life is going to bring you but your true blessings are always there right beside you. I now know all who walk beside me. I wish you all a very happy holiday. I will see you here again after the New Year. Happiness to you all!Tuesday, December 23, 2008

Laura, thank you for your gracious sharing...all the wonderful Christmas quilts and your positive thinking on life. Certainly not an easy time for you, but you have focused on the good things, and your children are surely yours. You are admired by us all. I pray that the new year will bring you what your heart desires.
Exactly what Passionate Quilter wrote. 'Hope your dinner with your kids was wonderful. :)
Thank you for the lovely 25 days of amazing quilts. The quilts are as inspiring as your positive attitude. May your 2009hold many days filled with joy and beauty..
What inspiration...on the quilts and your attitude to the changes in your life. We all have those highs and lows. Merry Christmas and thank you for the joy.
I'd like to add my heartfelt thanks and good wishes to you as well. The quilts you have shown are truly inspirational. Many blessings to you and to your children through this time from another who has been there too. Family support is truly a divine gift.
What wonderful Christmas quilts you have shared with us this December. I truly enjoyed seeing them. I hope you and your children will be able to overcome the sadness of your marriage coming apart - you have the right attitude it seems and I'm sure you will manage and find happiness. Your children are lucky to have you for a mom it seems to me.
