Mixed Media Monday - "Let's Celebrate!"

Ok, I cheated a little--but with good reason. I am celebrating New Year's in a PICU waiting room--but I am celebrating! My one-year old grandson got a gift of life yesterday. Through the selfless act of a caring family in their worst hour, my grandson received a liver transplant! By God's grace, he is doing well. There is no place I would rather be on this New Year's Eve!

So understandably, I do not have an art project to post today.

I will, however, be posting Wednesday for Banner Month. (I prepared ahead--"just in case")
Happy New Year to all of you!!
