Thanks for your VERY sweet feedback Kerry! I’m always profoundly grateful when a post resonates and people comment.
You have certainly had your fair share of rough edges and chipping away. But sometimes, those end up being the most spectacular masterpieces of all! I’m certain that will be the case with you. 🙂
