It's my Granddaughter's twenty-fifth birthday today. She is a miracle as she had leukemia when she was 22 months old and survived. She was also given Hepititis C in a blood transfusion and had treatment for it three years ago and is now healthy for the first time in her life. Chloe is also a miracle baby because Chelsea may not have been able to concieve because of all the chemo. We are so blessed to have them both in our lives.
This is the card I made for Chelsea:

Yesterday I made this calendar and I just love it. The idea came from http://jilltaylor-thirdagemusings.blogspot.com/2009/12/calendar-challenge.html and I think it is such a quick and simple way to record each day, it will be fun to look at at the end of the year and see what I have done. I showed it to my DD this morning when she came to do my training and she loved it too. Sorry for the poor quality of the photo, I tried several different ways and this was the best one. I miss my old camera:
