We really saved one this weekend! Absolutely adorable image of mother and child, child holding a stuffed sheep toy.

The thing was inches from death lol :) I'll have to post some pics of the matting it came out of. And the after look. Too bad I didn't take a photo of it prior to it's cleaning! :)[/QUOTE]
