Time sure has flown. Two years ago to-day I joined Passion's family, and from the bottom of my heart, I thankyou all for being such wonderful, caring friends.


Attention Shoppers
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


.

.


Excuse me if am mistaken
But I think you stole my heart
You tossed it in with groceries
Left unattended in your cart.

Forgive me if I am wrong
But I think you took my love
It's right between the margarine
And the dish soap labelled Dove.

Pardon me if I seem forward
But I want these items back
My devotion didn't satisfy you
To you it was just a snack.

It's time to pay my darling
Sure hope your credit's fine
Your greediness has made a mess
"Clean up in aisle nine!"

Chris, my dear girl, I am sorry I was "almost late" with my congrats at your two years.  Do you feel the growth?  I do.  I see it, too.  Sometimes we cannot get by with just ourselves, alone, and we need to know that there are others who go through the sames things we go through.  This, you have done.  And, you stand in your OWN light.  Always remember that.  I love the fact that your Sister brought you here, but you have made a name for yourself...and that, my dear, is simply because of your talent, and your very own self.

I love you, too.

Sis
