MFT's Love Fest Challenge is to make an encouraging card, so my inspiration was easy. My friend Lisa is a very strong person. She married her high school sweetheart and they started having kids right away. Over the years, his drinking got out of control and she has been emotionally abused for years. His inability to consistently hold a job left them in financial peril. Lisa has worked two jobs for years, scheduling her hours around her kids activities. She stayed with him of course for her children, so it was with a broken heart that she told them that she and they would be moving out. Their response? "What took you so long mom?" Lisa posts positive messages on Facebook every day and is really moving forward in an inspiring way. I am so proud to know her!
This quote from MFTs CS about Audrey Hepburn seems perfect for her. I used some bright, positive colors of Bo Bunny and a fun flower to showcase this message. PT - 5
Thanks Joanne for the wonderful challenge. Thank you so much for looking and have a peaceful day.
