Jean loves helping other. It’s so nice to see the fruits of her labor in action!

Jean and her daughter had the opportunity to drop off a donation of activity mats, puzzles, and more to St. Mary’s Home this week. It left her with more ideas and plans in her head!

Not even C-19 can stop Jean, though it has made her switch her focus to crocheting rather than sewing... temporarily! Because we cannot get out to deliver items, Jean has done less sewing, so she doesn’t overflow what storage she has! She has taken to crocheting granny squares, which will give folks that texture, and they can wrap their fingers in it, and it can be thrown in the washer!

Jean has been in contact with some of the Family Engagement Specialists from her great-granddaughter’s schools trying to get the word out about items that may help some of the special needs students in the local school district. At Back to School night this week at one school, we were able to give a bag full of items to the specialist there and set up a small display. Some of the items include: wheelchair bag, bib, touchy-feelie mat, lacing mat, activity mat, marble maze, photo pillow, soothing square, weighted lap pad, stuffed animal, and figure-its.

One of Jean’s newer clients is the James River Convalescent and Rehabilitation Center in Newport News. These items were created for visually impaired or blind patients to give them some mental and physical stimulation.

Jean’s business cards came in and they’ve already made a difference! If you arrived via a card, thanks so much! I hope to get more photos uploaded soon. I had to help Jean fill out the federal jury duty questionnaire she received in the mail today. I hope they won’t choose this 92 year old gal but just to be on the safe side, we’re going to get a doctor excuse too.
