    Hi Brenda,
    Hope you had a nice Valentine’s Day! I’m sorry I just haven’t had time to participate much in the Compel group (I’m also behind on my lessons). The Foundation takes most of my time and then I try to squeeze my writing in when I can….wish I had more time to devote to it!!
    Miss you my friend,
    Blessings,
    Bev xo

      No worries, friend. Love having you stop in when you have time. ((Hug)) I was a few weeks behind in the lessons until last weekend when I was able to catch up. Hope all the foundation work is going well. — Will be stopping by soon for my little girl, haha. ๐Ÿ™‚ xoxo

    Hope you had a sweet and special Valentine’s Day! I was reminded recently that Valentine’s Day was originally about friendship rather than romantic love. You are a sweet example of what a friend should be.

      I didn’t know Valentines Day was originally about friendship. I like that. ๐Ÿ™‚ Thanks for sharing, Donna. xoxo
