Lost Boy

Here's a wonderful image from Kraftin' Kimmie stamps. He's one of the lost boys from Peter Pan.  I love the saying that comes with him, "Never Grow Up!"  If only life could always be so easy, but then as I recall, I wasn't much of one for childhood. I was pretty much ready to grow up pretty instantly so I couldn't imagine ever going back to being a kid.
So, today's the first day for blog candy!  Woo Hoo, just leave a comment today, I will pick one of today's comments as the winner, later this week.  The winner will be listed at the bottom of this post!  I will also announce on each day's post when a new winner is announced and who the winners are, so you will know.  Just add a comment to each project everyday and join in.  There will be 12 random days picked between now and Dec 12th.  Today's a day I am going off to my cancer doc to see a dear friend, she's having a treatment today.  Say a prayer for her. Her cancer was in remission, but has now come back.  One month from now, on that Dec 12th day will be my new testing at the same cancer doctor.  My last tests were not good, meaning that my white blood cell count has gotten lower.  They are testing in Dec to see if there is any improvements.   Hugs everyone and good luck!!

WINNER:  Congrats!  The monday winner and Day 1 of the 12 days of Blog candy is Caroline!!  Caroline, please email your addy to Holley htondre@aol.com

Hi Holley,
Looking forward to a month of fun with you and seeing what you've in store for us. This card is a great start, fab image.
When I look at my grandaughter Katie, I often wish she could stay as she is (nearly 2yrs old, so cute and gorgeous!)
My prayers today will include your friend and as always, yourself.
