  12. My card #24 will be going to a family with several adopted children from Ethiopia. I think they will enjoy shaking the card and seeing the leaves and beads move around.
    My card #25 will be going to a friend from college who is going through a difficult time in her relationship with God right now. She feels like she has messed up too badly to get back to a good relationship with Him. I'm hoping this card will help remind her of how He is able to forgive and transform us.
    My card #26 will be going to some friends who live in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan where it is really cold and snowy. I thought that bear with his scarf was just perfect for them!
