What great quotes! We're leaving to visit family in 2 days (!) and those statements warm my heart in anticipation of taking our darlings to be loved on by the grands. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteAlso, WELCOME to the blogging world. I've always enjoyed your email updates, even though I've rarely (ever?) replied. I look forward to keeping up with you via the blog.
Thank you for the wonderful comments :) We enjoyed meeting you too and hope to stay in touch! I am so glad we attended that class together and I think we all benefited so much - from the emotional to the logistical aspects. It will be a better journey because of Patti and the wonderful group we had :) Look forward to more updates on how you are doing! I'll be reading your blog! All the best, Brooke
