Now for the good news and that is that Patty Sue has returned and we are so glad to welcome her back she has been with The Paper Shelter for many years and it was sad circumstances that forced her to take some time out to spend with her family, although her grandson is now progressing well unfortunately the same cannot be said about her hubby who is still having lots of health problems but she assures me that being back on the Team again will help with coping so Welcome Back Patty we are so glad to see you back.
And now to bring a bit of Christmas cheer to you all.
