Let me tell you a little about her!! We first met at work in 2000. She was interviewing for a job and I was sitting in on the interview. In an instant, I could see that Farah had a glow about her. We quickly became friends.
We were both newly weds, marrying only two days apart. In 2002, we both became pregnant and spent alot of lunch hours eating hot wings.
We laugh all the time and scare each other too! A few weeks ago, she was hiding in my office, when I rounded the corner. Farah made some noise and scared me so bad I threw my candy bar at her and hit her in the head. I can't believe I didn't pee on myself!

| She is so beautiful!! Gorgeous Smile and Eyes! |
She has been my shoulder to cry on when things have been good and when things have been bad.
I have always heard that if you ever have one true friend like I have with Farah, consider yourself lucky! I do not think I am lucky, I know that I am blessed!!!
Saturday was her birthday! I never feel like I do enough for her :(
I wanted to make something special for her, so I made her a case for her Kindle.
 |
| Quilted front with Monogram |
 |
| The back is not quilted, but is padded |
 |
| Inside is fully lined with a pocket to keep the cord away from the screen |
 |
| The zipper is hidden! |
I made this case using a pattern from Five Star Fonts.
I love you my friend, Farah!!! Happy Birthday!!
This is so wonderful!! <3
