Girl Power

Back on the Path of Positivity again and what a good theme to come in to! My beautiful eldest daughter has certainly been showing off her girl power having given us our first Grandchild in April. It's been a long and continuing road to her recovery from a botched delivery but she has taken it all in her stride. Hopefully by this time next year all the further repair surgery will have been completed and successful, Covid 19 will be no longer a threat and we can enjoy being a relaxed family again.

While thinking about how to approach my sample for this the news of the death of Helen Reddy came through and I thought of her iconic song 'I am woman' so I have used that to make another page for my Inspirations Book.

However my favourite Helen Reddy song 'Candle on the Water' comes from the film 'Pete's Dragon'. If you do not know it here is a link to a video clip from the film:

  3. Well first of all congratulations on becoming a grandma for the first time - it happened to me too last year when our little granddaughter decided to arrive 6 weeks early. So sorry to hear your daughter had a bad time and hope she's on the road to recovery. Your card is delightful - and a great tribute to Helen Reddy - thanks for sharing with us at Sweet Stampin this week.
