Grandmas are the best

Today I got a pkg from my grandma...it had this really cool throw shawl in it. It's very pretty, and perfect size to put over your shoulders, which I'll be needing, as they say you always feel cold when going thru chemo. (hope that doesn't mean I can't snowboard at ALL this winter!) I've always been a HUGE fan of hand made things, and I think that's what even drew me to sreenprinting. So, naturally I loved this shawl, but the note tied to it was what got me: "This shawl was made just for you. To bring you comfort. To know you are loved. This shawl is to wrap you up when you are cold, when you are hurting, when you need to snuggle. This shawl was made with blessings, with love, with prayers." I have to admit it made me cry a little.
Thank you G-ma. I love you.

Something about a grandma's love is beyond compare. I'm sure that had you smiling. I have a similar blanket that my g-ma surprised me with that I wouldn't trade for all the money in the world.

Good going G'ma...that was a lovely gift for our dear Ando. Nice to know you can wrap him up in love long distance. Love you, Sue
