Bethany August 21, 2008 at 2:32 am: I “read” Cate’s book to my three-year-old daughter, who asked to read it again right away. We talk a lot about how hearts mean “I love you,” and there is plenty of love in this story to go around! Beautiful.

Rachelle August 21, 2008 at 10:36 pm: P.s. I emailed this to my friend Katy K, single and happy and in her 40′s, and she said:

“High School and _then_ happily ever after?! I totally screwed that up!” ‘;-)

….(my) Catie and I _did_ have a little talk about how “there’s a time and a place for everything, and that place is called COLLEGE!

Tee Hee!

“When I turn to Rachelle for help, her words are like the fine tuning of my soul–the interpretation of a truth that is sometimes hard to find. It’s golden to be heard and understood.”
-- Flock Member, Tracey Henton

-- Flock Member Tess Giles Marshall, Pilgrim's Moon

-- Jim Henderson, author, The Resignation of Eve
