This weekend was so full that I found myself coming and going. My heart is full and my eyes with tears as I watched so many special young people graduate from Wylie Prep. This event was followed by celebrating my sweet grandsons 5th birthday. What a blessing to get to watch all of these events. My daughter did a great job with his birthday. It was so much fun and the paint party with 13 kids in my studio went...

I get many questions about several of my blogs I thought hump day was a great day to revisit those blogs and give an update. The blog about my weight loss seem to generate the most questions.
