    Traci, I am thrilled to be the high bidder! I look forward to receiving the very generous gifts from the gals who donated their talents to the cause. But of course, as everyone knows, the most important part of this is being able to help someone in need. My heart is full, and I am feeling the true spirit of Christmas, due to the actions of you and all who participated. I pray that this will make the life of the recipient a little easier, especially at this time of year.
    Thank you so much, Traci, for initiating this auction. Bless you, and all the other gals..... it was a wonderful and thoughtful event.
    Wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas!
