The first cards for Clotilde have begun to trickle in. I've extended the deadline until June 1, because contacting her friends, fans, and business buddies has proved daunting. She touched a LOT of lives and I don't want to miss anyone!

A gallery has already expressed interest in carrying these for Mother's Day. Yahoo!
