Mary,

Oh, so lovely! Such a special time and love the idea of leaving 'glitter behind'. Congratulations on your debut book and launch! I look forward to reading it! Best wishes for more glitter to leave behind!

Many blessings and MUCH LOVE,

~WendyπŸ’œπŸ€—βœ¨πŸ“˜

Thank you, Wendy! My mom once said, "People should be better for your entering a room." I really had no idea what she was talking about, as I was such an insecure soul, and couldn't imagine that anyone even noticed my presence. Now, I know it wasn't about the "noticing" it was about "presence."

Oh, I LOVE this, Mary! What a beautiful piece of wisdom for your momma to share with you! What a wonderful reflection you are sharing about it’s meaning.

β€œNow, I know it wasn't about the "noticing" it was about "presence."β€œ

This gives me God-bumps and warm rush to my heart. You are so right! Thank you for sharing that. Blessings, ~Wendy πŸ’œβœ¨

Maura, okay, I cried reading your card, reading each page of that beautiful book (how have I never heard of it before??) and was left with the thought, "Why isn't Maura running for political office????"

Awww, Wendy, thank you! And extra thank you for looking at the photos of my mom and dad. I thought grief was supposed to lessen...it seems it grows each day they are not here.
