I am ever so grateful for good news ... especially when it's about my Mom.
Yesterday, she went in for her routine follow up with her oncologist. She left with the news that her liver count is down (although still high), she gets a break from chemotherapy, and her abdominal swelling WILL go down!
This is all great news that couldn't have come at a better time for her. It's the perfect "break" she needed and deserves.
I hope all of you have a great Thanksgiving and are grateful for whats in your life.
TOMORROW: Pals Paper Arts will have another challenge available. We hope you'll come play with us over the long weekend. Be sure to check back here for my design team submission.
Kris --
What a lovely Thanksgiving gift. Please hug your Mom for me.

Wonderful news, Kris. I hope your Thanksgiving is a true celebration. I like seeing the flowers (embossing) in a different color than white or red!
