First things first…today, I am full of gratitude for you, the reader (you know who you are!) I want you to know that I understand the patience it takes you to read through my offerings of words and paragraphs. I see it as a gift from you to me when you read my blog posts, and I am thankful! Everytime you take the time to comment (and you always do) whether through the blog, personal email, or even text, I am deeply affected at the core of me. I want you to understand that. Thank you. Thank you, thank you. It would be the biggest blessing in the world to always have you reading. Sincerely.
