When Presence is a Present


I look forward to our annual "Glenview Girls" Christmas Party every single year.  After knowing each other for the vast majority of our lives, it is so special to me that we're all able to grow as friends as we continue to grow as human beings :) 

Collectively among us, there are now countless countries traveled, two doctors of PT,  a manager of a medical clinic, half a dozen masters degrees earned, published writers, and six incredibly fortunate children (who clearly have hot successful mamma's ;)

aren't "1" and "HELP" pretty much the same thing in this scenario?!

~Young Ed Bloom 

We were blessed by an "uncatachable" fish; 
which makes us, the lucky ones
