Winter Solstice

2014 Winter Solstice card by Susan Kapuscinski Gaylord
I'm not generally a solstice celebrator, but when Susan Gaylord announced she had extra greeting cards to give away to the first 20 readers to e-mail her, I jumped right on it. Susan has developed a distinctive look to her calligraphy, and she often chooses quotations I am not that familiar with but that resonate all the same. So I asked for a card, not knowing what it would say or look like or even if I'd be quick enough to receive one at all. In turn, this over-sized postcard arrived in my mailbox yesterday with a sentiment that couldn't be more timely for me, one to take into the new year to sustain me. Perhaps it will sustain you as well. Hope you have enjoyed the winter solstice and its promise of days filled with more light.

This is what got me through troubles with my youngest in 2007....
