[Nfb-krafters-korner] spreading good cheer -- thanks for the pattern

[Henrietta Brewer]

Hi,
We are so glad to see a post from you here. Carol and I mention you a lot. 

Well, I am excited. Now I know someone else who can say a trache and a vent are wonderful. 

I am so glad to hear that you are still making the eggs. Great job.

Write to me if you would like.
