Wowee wowee wowee! I could hardly believe my eyes when this huge-mongous package arrived today for me from Pat and Virg! First off, it was packed in the cutest envelope I have ever seen! Pat always does 'em up cute! Then the contents! OMGoodness...where to begin? Pat stamped me a load of perfect cards for my card ministry - flat so they won't cost a ton of postage, and perfect in that they will be so appropriate to send to the families that are mourning the loss of their precious little one. I have to send out so many praying for you/sympathy cards and these are so perfect - Thank you from the bottom of my heart Pat!
And Virg had the best idea eveh! She stamped cute "kiddie" cards and attached the crayons right to the card! GENIOUS! So the next time one of "my" little ones in in ICU and they need a bigger lift than usual, I can send a card complete with an activity. Get a load of the bubble mailers...she even included those so I can mail these babies out without having the crayons get destroyed! Virg, what can I say to properly thank you???
To top it all off...They send postage stamps to help fund my regular "mail runs" AND a couple of GORGEOUS cards! (I am lising those separately, so that you can get a good look!)
Pat and Virg - love and sprinkles from my heart to yours! Love you both, and thank you so much!!!

Sis, I am so happy you enjoyed your lil pkg, and thrilled about the cards Virg made! She has had those crayon cards for a long time- check out her gallery- I think it is her very first post! Praying for you and mom, and missing you. LYMI
