As the sun began to rise and a new day began... a last breath was taken and a new life began. Life ever free. Our dear employee Sara's mother departed this life this morning and took flight into eternity... the finality hits those left here to mourn their dear mother, so keep the family close in thought and prayer as they make arrangements for her final resting place. Feel free to express your thoughts and prayers to Sara and her family... as we all feel the need of encouragement during a time of loss.
Life is fleeting as we all very well know, we just seem to get caught up in the here and now and do lose focus on what really matters... take time to enjoy life, reconnect with a long lost friend, do something extra special for someone, and remember to tell those close to you that you LOVE
them, for we don't know when they too will be taken from us .
My prayers are with you, Sara. God is ever Faithful.

ReplyDeleteComment: Hello ladies!
ReplyDeleteI was so thrilled to see your sweet little shop in the Country Living Magazine! I got to visit your shop one cold winter day about 2 1/2 years ago. My friend was getting married at the Alliance church around the corner from you (her dad is the pastor). I chatted with one of you for awhile.... I live in Italy as a missionary/youth minister on a US military base outside of Pisa, Italy. Sometimes it amazes me that I get to live in Tuscany (my house is 30 minutes from the base it the countryside). I am also a lover of France and have gone to Provence many times and am actually going to a sweet little town this weekend, just across the Italian border into France. I'm on a hunt for a large "brocante" antique store my friend found last time she visited. Anyways, all this to say....when I was in your shop, I fell in love with your style and every sweet detail you put into the store! You let me take a couple photo's and I still get ideas off of them! I also purchased a 2 feet tall Eiffel Tower and a tin of French stickers that have had fun using on old luggage and bottles.
I HOPE to come visit your store again....maybe this winter when I'm in Ohio for a month or so (I'm from Mansfield). I've told so many people about your store and talked very very highly of it! I hope your business is doing well and I hope to visit again someday, not just to see your store but also to visit with you a bit! I remember enjoying your hospitality very much!
Blessings to you!
Jessica
