Thank you everyone for your kind complements.
I'm sorry I was so slow to respond, you would think that this being my first banner I would be anxious to see how it turned out, but life happens. It was a good thing though. We had our almost two-year-old grand-daughter staying with us for several days and she really kept us hopping. She is an utter delight, but her parents picked her up yesterday and we spent today collapsed! Having babies is definitely for the young!
