I spent this Saturday stuck in bed with a Sickle Cell crisis. Not how I had hoped to spend my weekend. The up side to being ill was that in between my Oxycodone induced slumber I was able to finish a bookmark that I had been working on.
This bookmark will go to a social worker. If you knew what my family has been through fighting with CPS for the last five years, that sentence would shock you. I never thought I would ever get to a point where I would even entertain the idea of giving anything, (other than a middle finger), to a social worker.
But now the struggles I have faced have shown to me the true measure of God's love and has surprised me with my own ability to forgive. So I have made this bookmark to give to a social worker on the day our case will finally and forever be closed.
This bit of tatting is my small way of releasing negativity, letting it go and allowing it to be transformed into something beautiful. It is a wonderful gift to see how far my faith has come and I give this bookmark with the blessing of mercy and grace.
Bookmark was made using size 20 Lizbeth thread in color #125 Sea Scape.
