Thankful

Happy Thanksgiving!

My family has so much to be thankful for this year! My daughter and her unborn baby were near death a month ago, and now are doing very well! She developed bacterial pnuemonia from undiagnosed H1N1. Both lungs were filled with the disease, she was on 100% oxygen and placed in a medically induced coma from 5 days. She was placed on a ventilator and fed through her nose. During this ordeal the baby remained strong.

She released from the hospital on day #8, through nothing less than a miracle!

So, yes, I am VERY THANKFUL to have my daughter with me this Thanksgiving.

Christmas Swap at Down-to-Earth Forums

I am participating in a Christmas ornament swap over at http://downtoearthforums.com/ and this is the ornament I recieved from my friend Lisa. Lisa lives in Australia and is obviously very crafty and creative. Just look at this lovely beaded mod angel!! Won't she look pretty on my Christmas tree?

THANKS again, Lisa!
