Have YOU Seen This Man?


As a mother of four children, and now a grandmother to four, I want to use this space today to ask for your help in finding a fugitive who committed unforgivable acts against a young girl in 2001.
His name is Oscar Michael Trevino. He is wanted in Dodge County, Minnesota for the repeated rapes against a 13 year old girl who rode the school bus he drove.

Is this story real? Yes..here is the story of this school bus driver and the young girl he tortured:

This is the link to the Sheriff's Department who is searching for him:

The child he raped was my daughter. She, and the rest of our family, moved on from this ordeal but one thing keeps us from purging him from our minds. He is out in the world living as though nothing happened. He is out free but hiding, rather than suffering in prison for his crimes. He is not paying the price for what he put my daughter through.
Help us find him please.

Uniting some of my sites

I am trying to catch up on my homepage these days. In the meantime, I think I will just connect a few of my sites so you can decide for yourself where you want to go. :)

Hoping to catch up!

I am finally getting in gear here. Before Christmas my list of to-sew's and to-do's in general was so long. Now, I am getting back to my relaxing sewing again. The best kind.

I listed a new style of purse, for me at least, in my Etsy shop. I love the fabric I used in this one. Very in tune to spring, and let's face it, with temps -20 here in SE Minnesota thinking of spring can be such a pleasant thought!

I must admit though, when it is so cold, the sun is brightly shining and the snow is glistening it is so very beautiful. Each season holds such beauty and the changes in them only makes us appreciate the season all the more.

To catch up with family news I will start with this:
In family news, my oldest son, Jason, became engaged to Jenna this past November. Actually, they became engaged on the 30th anniversary of my husband Dan and I. Is that great or what!
They plan to be married after Jenna graduates college. She wishes to become a school teacher and we all wish her well in that. She will be great at it!

On to the rest of our children with future blogging. For now, I must move on with my day!

Such dread

I am really wishing that this CPSIA thing wasn't going to be reality in a month. It is not good for any of us with small business that create items for children.

It also isn't fair that we must pay the price due to the items shipped into the US being of unsafe quality. :(
