Missing You

This time of year always makes me miss my family.  For more than 25 years I have lived over 1600 miles from my "Home, Home".  I've never been able to have Thanksgiving with my family since I left Upper Michigan.  When the boys were growing up there was never enough time to make the long trip during their school break.  So, here's a card for my Mom.  I miss you.

The sketch layout is from Create with Connie and Mary (again!) from their first  Holiday 2012 Challenge (CCMCHOL12-01).  As a subscriber you have the opportunity to win a free subcscription to several weeks of wonderful ideas.  Who wouldn't like to win something like that?  Sign me up!
