Hi Debra! Our posts are so similar, how fun! Did you see mine? You are lucky enough to have an Abraham Lincoln postcard. Very nice. Thanks for sharing those quotes too. Have a great week! Gina
Those are great cards and I loved the quotes! Thank you for sharing them.
My two favorite Presidents. I always think of Washington and Lincoln in February. Guess that shows that I am of "a certain age". Their birthdays were separate and important Holidays when I was young. Their wisdom still holds true as reflected in these quotes you've chosen. Thank you for honoring these gentlemen.
What great pieces you have! I adore cards and yours are really amazing.
Thanks so much for sharing with us.
Hugs,
Patti
Debra, I love all of these quotes by these two great men! Another favorite of mine by honest Abe is "Everything I learned I learned from my mother". Your postcards are always so delightful. Love, love the images! Thanks for sharing with Share Your Cup.

Blessings,
