What a great cause! I already downloaded my calendars (today I hope to play with them!) and I tweeted about them (@atticelf). I hope lots of people listen. Charley sounds like she was such a sweet girl and what a great way to keep her spirit alive and well.

I shared the calendar with my stamping friends this weekend when we got together for a "girls' weekend" in Yakima. They will be ordering their own on Monday! I so look forward to the calendar downloads each year, and I appreciate the good work done with the proceeds. Thanks, Linda, for continuing this worthwhile project.
