Lee - I so wish that I could write as you do, with such ease. My thoughts get all jumbled up after just a few lines I am afraid. Many thanks & Hugs !!! Startime - thankyou so much for your kind comments! |

(smiles) Yay! Oh Chris, you depict slices of life ever so wonderfully in so few words, sweet friend, I could truly see a vibrant picture reading this that stuck out like a painting on a wall, yay, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Chris, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other" |
