I had to skip the month of May for my Children's Craft Class due to all the travel and my son's procedure. We finally got to have it last week though. What a fun time! The children were able to choose which box/purse they wanted and then decorate the box/purse and fill it with handmade cards.

What a blessing that charity is to parents with children in the hospital! Continue reading
