Wish #48

What a happy fabric! This bright, blue fabric is filled with toys of days gone by. It is so nostalgic and quaint. This was sent by the Foley family and their wish is:

"The glory of friendship
is not the outstretched hand,
nor the kindly smile
nor the joy of companionship;
it is the spritual inspiration
that comes to one
when he discovers that
someone else believes in him
and is willing to trust him." ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

May you always be surrounded by loving family and friends.

These thoughts from Emerson are very meaningful to me and I am so glad the Foley family sent them. Caitlin was born at Emerson hospital in Concord, MA - home of Walden Pond and the home of noted Ralph Waldo Emerson. Love the area and the inspirations of Massachusetts in the fall and Walden Pond in the mornings.

This isn't an easy process to go through. And there is just about no way in the world that we could do it without our dear friends, our family - and the unconditional support and conviction that our faith in Christ provides.
