I am passing it on to an 8 year old who has recently come forward with abuse by a relative. He has confessed to 88 counts. Her mother (a co-worker) knew I quilted and thought this would keep her mind off the bad and focused on the good. It has been wonderful therapy for her. She is doing great and I have fallen in love with her. What a strong little girl she is. She is now ready to go back to school for the first time since Thanksgiving. The story has been all over the news and in the papers here. Of course her name was never used but his was and she is a little scared her classmates might know what happened to her. We have all assured her she has done nothing wrong and that she needs to focus on what a wonderful future she has ahead. Her older sister (12)is gong to join us in the sewing room this summer. God has surely Blessed me with this family.
