On hold

My world has suddenly turned upside down.  My parents were supposed to come to visit for Easter but instead I am driving with my girls to Canada to be with my dad as he undergoes intense chemotherapy as he was just diagnosed with stage 4 cancer last week.  I don't know what will happen in the next while.  Hopefully I can craft but I am going to have to take a break from blogging for a bit.  I have stuff scheduled to post for the next couple of weeks but when those run out I am just going to be M.I.A. until things get a bit more normal.  I am sure my lack of blogging will not alter the course of any of your lives but I hope you will be patient and continue to check on Small Fry & Co. and wait for my return.
Thanks a million to all my fabulous readers and commenters!!

  13. I am so sorry to hear of your news. Your family will be in my prayers. I'm not sure where in Canada you and your family will be. I am in Calgary if there is anything you and the girls need (even someone to keep them entertained at the hospital) please let me know. I know all too well how hard it is, and it would be a blessing for me to be able to do anything I can for you.

  16. Heather, SO SO SO sorry to hear about your Father! Truly sad! Cancer is an awful monster. I hope it goes better for your father than for mine:( Make the most of every moment you get with him. I saw this quote on a blog and highlighted it on my blog because it is powerful. I hope you get the chance to read it and share it with your family!!! http://somedaycrafts.blogspot.com/2011/01/cancer-is-so-limited-must-read.html
