We all need an angel


I can't believe we are just a few days away from August that means 47 days til my birthday and just over 150 days til Christmas, Yes I am already thinking of Christmas.
Usually I have already started my Christmas shopping but well what is there to shop for ? I do not even know when I will see my daughter let alone know if I can give her any gifts, why send things to her when I know in the past her father and grandmother have not given her the things I have sent.

Anyways the thought behind this post is because today I started making necklaces and things for Halloween and also for Christmas, In the madness of my mind I figured if I can't go out and enjoy my festive season also being the first Christmas without my daughter which breaks my heart, I can not sit around crying and having a pitty party over broken traditions the world keeps turning so instead of all that shopping I usually do, buying and making truck loads of gifts for everyone I will start a new tradition and put all my spare time into making gifts.

Last year my daughter made angels for people and gave them away as the year before was the tsunami and she said to me "mum those children need an angel watching over them" so she found in a beading book of mine angels and I thought her how to make them and she sold them to raise money for the victims, this year she is the victim of something so all her left over angels I will sell and put the money towards something for her, she has so many left it is not funny, if the demand is high I shall make custom ordered ones with your desired colours.
