Merry Day After

Good morning, bloggy friends, and merry day-after Christmas. I hope you all had a wonderful day with family and/or friends. I had fully intended to continue my Christmas crafting, but we had a little bump in the road that took me away from my blog for a bit.

Saturday my mother-in-law passed away. She had been going downhill, gaining momentum, in the days prior and finally the Altzheimer's and Parkinsons took her. She went peacefully and comfortably with the chaplain singing her favorite hymns and family close by. Hubs got a flight out on Monday and has been with his brother and sister helping with final arrangements etc. The funeral/services will be Friday. Needless to say, Christmas here was very quiet.

So, if you don't mind, a prayer for my husband would be very much appreciated. He was his mom's 'favorite' and they were always rather close regardless of the miles between them. Thank you so much. ♥
