Hi Everyone,

It is with an extremely heavy heart that I let you know that this will be my last blog post for #OxCoPALs. Working at The Oxford Company has been everything I ever thought it could be. It has opened my eyes to a whole new amazing craft that I am only a little... ok, a lot... obsessed with. However, I have had to make the incredibly difficult decision to leave this amazing, dream come true job, in order to be more available for my children and their incredibly busy and hectic lives. As one is making the adjustment to Middle School and the other adjusts to some life changes, it seems like they need me now more than ever. 

While I am so deeply sad to go and to leave this wonderful blog, as well as all of you, I just wanted you each to know how much fun this whole experience has been. for me. I love hearing from everyone and hearing how much you each enjoy this blog, the projects, and the tips and tricks, as well as hiccups that we all discover while completing them. It has been fun for me to learn about Heidi, Cotey, Christy, and Liz's approach to punching. It has also been a blast to hear how each of you have fared and what you have each learned. I have learned something from each of you with every project and it has been incredibly enriching to do so. 

From the bottom of my heart, thank you so much for being a part of this journey with me! I wish each and everyone of you the best!

Happy Punching!
