I LOVE getting your emails. It's the best part of this blogging gig by far. Thank you for taking the time to connect. I read and savor your emails. Sometimes I reread them because they have been such a source of blessing and encouragement to me. I make an effort to answer them but I can never keep up. Despite my terribly disorganized email-answering ways, thank you for every kind word. It's like healing balm for the weary soul.
Much love,
xoxo,

I am so sorry we missed the girls. Please tell them how beautiful and graceful they look. Morgan said she saw you there. Andrew and I took my Mom to see the new Star Trek movie. My mom is such a trekie. She has been a trooper sitting at home watching me do work for Morgan’s recital next week I really needed to get her out of the house and I wasn’t so sure how much fun it would be for her to go to 2 dance recitals while she was here. Mogan said they did a great job!

Ooooh, brings back memories of my dancing days. It was such a big deal when I was little if my parents brought flowers. They are beautiful little girls!
