GEM IN OUR FAMILY TREE #94

This is a personalized wish from Tate's Nana and Gramps....


Tate's middle name will be after her Nana because I always wanted to name my daughter after my mom.



Even though Tate's Nana is not a crafty person and does not scrap, she was able to do this for the wish and square. I know she spend lots of time selecting the perfect fabric... this fabric is so much like my mom.... "SUNNY"... Although it is written by my Mom, the sentiment is also from my dad.... Tate is welcomed into the family Tree as our Sparkling Gem... NANA and GRAMPS Farmington, UTAH...

STAINED GLASS #93

People are like stained-glass windows. They sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in, their true beauty is revealed only if there is light from within.
Elizabeth Kubler-Ross


My your inner light always shine brightly..... From Mariah Coffel Greenville SC waiting for her little gal Sloan!!!!
