Final Thank-you to EVERYONE ELSE...

Well, this is the last card in my series of Thank-Yous during these challenging times.For sure, there are people I've missed because I don't have the digi stamps.
So, thank-you to ANYONE I've missed...clergies, vets, philanthropists, truckers, florists, funeral directors, ambulance drivers, first responders, bankers, signers, musicians, pilots, flight attendants, garbage collectors, factory workers, seamstresses, orderlies, sign workers, and so many, many more. Once again, thank-you so much for EVERY SINGLE PERSON doing their part as we get through this.

Thank-you to the CHILDREN...

Do you know the group that must get the BIGGEST THANK-YOU? The children!!! Their lives were turned UPSIDE DOWN immediately on March 16th! No more school, daycare, friends, skating, dancing, hockey, swimming, karate, and just getting together with their friends and having fun. They, for sure, are struggling to figure this all out. Darling children, we send you a virtual HUG and say Thanks! We will get through this and we will be together again. Stay safe and strong.
