A couple of sympathy cards

Here are a couple of cards I made - the situation calling for sympathy cards can be so sad, but this went to a beautiful family whose loved one left us and went to be with our Jesus in heaven. We just cannot be too sad about that, can we?! This friend lived an awesome life here with us, and accomplished what she wanted to do (and what I pray will be remembered about me too) .... she was a very special friend who genuinely loved all people and loved Jesus with all her heart. That made me feel good whenever I was around her, and gave me comfort that there really are people like them in this world.
Can someone tell me when my life is supposed to slow down? Just when I think I have some free time, something else comes up that I need to take care of. I don't want to be bored or lonely, just to have time to do more of some of the things I enjoy doing - like card making and scrapping!! I am taking a few days next week to go to Pennsylvania to get some of those priceless hugs and kisses from some precious grandchildren. But first, I get to spend a day with my grandson Josiah who is graduating next month (and receiving his Eagle Scout too!!!) - I plan to travel with him and his parents to Ohio to his college on Friday. After all, Grandma needs to add her seal of approval too, don't I?????!!!!!!
Hope to be back later -- hugs to all ....
