Happy Thanksgiving!

Hi guys! Just a quick reminder that I am on vacation which started today (YAY) and will be returning on the Sunday the 26th. We will be out of state visiting family, and eating LOTS of good food. I'm not too sure how often I will be able to check my email (if at all). So, please bare with me and I will get back to you when I get back in town if not before. I will be back in action and working to get all deadlines met, packages shipped, and orders delivered on Monday the 27th. I hope you all have a wonderful and blessed Thanksgiving. Eat good, rest up, and beware of crazy people shopping on Friday (I hear they are ruthless)! I'll be back with vacation pics and *hopefully* a new family portrait! Talk to you all soon!

Eliot

I honestly believed I would never be seeing this day. As many of you know, I was personally touched by a little man. A baby that had spoken volumes to my heart. He reminded me of God's true and unmeasurable love. His parents reminded me to be strong in my faith. To have patience. To persevere. The three of them taught me to open my eyes and love what I see. They taught me that things may not always happen as WE expect them to, but that doesn't make the blessings smaller. They taught me to love more passionately. I appreciate my life more. I appreciate my husband and children more. I appreciate God more. I could go on all day about the many ways this family impacted my life. In 98 days, they made changes in me. And others. Their faith is something I admire. On October 27th Eliot went to be with the Lord. If you would like to read about Eliot's precious and inspiring journey, visit his blog.
My heart and prayers are with you, Matt and Ginny. Eliot, thank you. Thank You. You continue to teach and inspire me. My love is with the three of you. Always.
