The last day of the year

The last day of the Year.  So happy

we are starting a new year.

2012 was the hardest year of my life.

New Year's Day is my birthday.  I am

thankful to start fresh.  We all have our

own personal 911 or Sandy Hook.  I have

had mine, I survived by the grace of god.

Through it all I have learned who really 

loves and cares about me.  I share my 

birthday with a special person, the

man who raised me as his own

Thomas Manz, I know he is heaven 

watching down and protecting me. 

A special thank you to him.  I cry

each year because he is not here in the

physical with us, but i feel his spirit.

The first gift above i received from a 

special friend.  thank you so much Carol.

The second is a quilt i started about 5

years ago,  It is finished and top

quilted.  I really need to unpack the

camera and get a great picture of this

quilt.  the colors are amazing.  The 

pattern is a Bargello.   To all of my kids

Amanda, Chris, & Alyssa, I love you.  

May you have Peace and happiness in

your heart.  Happy new year's

to Everyone.
