    Default Bad Day turned around

    Little boy had cancer, survivor for 1 yr to date. Big brother left for camp, and he's upset and
    crying, their foster sister learning to run, runs into fireplace, and causes bleeding on her face, more
    crying. Guild passed along the blue, green and yellow squares and I made quilt and pillowcase
    for the little fellow, just by adding baseball fabric to make it larger - now all big smiles, and getting ready for bed and it was only 7 pm. Sometimes, it takes such a small thing to make a little one happy. Feels good to give,
    and to do things for others.[ATTACH=CONFIG]424313[/ATTACH]
