I made this card for a dear cousin's daughter having her first baby through IVF

How amazing that we have so many options open to childless couples these days.

I know first hand the desire to have children and the difficulties I had.
Not as bad as some I know but the hope and the disappointments are enough
to bear without all the rest some endure.
The good Lord eventually blessed us with three wonderful children even without
any knowledge until years later that my issues were from Endometriosis.

To all those ladies waiting and hoping my heart goes out to you.
I had a neighbour who finally had a baby after three continents and eleven IVF's.
It happened after a lady prayed over her so without the belief she still calls her boy a miracle.
My the Lord bless you with your greatest desires.

Crafty Hugs, Carol

For the Mathematician

This card is for a grandson turning 14.

His main interests are his cat, maths (which he's excellent at) and of course computer games.

The games I have already done to death so I decided on maths this time.

No idea for his birthday next year.
