Square & Wish #25 - Mogadore, Ohio

The LeMasters family sent us this beautiful piece of fabric for Emilija.

The wish is:
"A child's life is like a piece of paper on which every person leaves a mark." - Chinese Proverb

Square & Wish # 24 - Florence, Alabama

I really love this cheerful fabric. It reminds me a lot of fabric in clothing I wore in the 70's when I myself was a small child. This lovely piece of fabric came from the Hammond family.

Wish read:

We witness a miracle every time a child enters into life.
But those who make their journey home across time and miles,
growing within the hearts of those who wait to love them,
are carried on the wings of destiny and placed among us
by God's very own hands. - Kristi Larson

Our Wish for you is a lifetime of happiness, love and peace.

Their wish was:

Our wish for you is a life filled with Love, Happiness and Joy!

Of everyday
Your smile guides my way.
