With Love...




My husband is a veterinary internal medicine specialist.  He can be a huge help to many pets and their owners... but, unfortunately, many of the patients he sees are very sick and his job is just to manage symptoms to help them feel as good as they can until... well, until they pass on.

I try to supply my husband with handmade sympathy cards to send to his clients.  Sometimes he needs more than I can keep up with... but I like to make each one individually.  I think each person who is mourning the loss of a beloved pet should get a special card.  I know that what my husband writes inside his cards (handmade or not) is the part that makes them special... I just hope that the people who really need the touch of a handmade card get one.  (I pray to God that He takes care of that part.  I am sure He does.)

Well... Hello there!

Real Life, as it says on this card... Real life can be pretty hectic.  Real life can be stressful.  Real life can be more wonderful than words can express.

I have been still making cards (and scrapbooking here and there).  I just have not been posting cards!  I know, I know... I have promised in previous posts that "now I am back" and "I promise to post more", but it gets to be, well, real life.

So here is a card I made to send the boys' school photos in for a family member.

Real Life.  Don't miss it!
