Another Duel....

Time for another duel....

This months topic is Thanksgiving/Gratitude. We were also challenged to think of someone that we are most grateful for and write about that person. It was hard for me to pick just one, so I will mention the others too. This year alot of things have changed for us, and my kids have been very flexible and adaptable. I also need to mention my online friends from SCS...loving referred to as my Forest Friends, they are kind, generous, and great listeners too. I ♥ you all.

The person I'm going to write about is my friend Jill, she is awesome! Jill is smart, funny, and a great listener. Most of all we can talk about anything and everything, she will lovingly offer advise and/or her opinion without judgement. The best thing is she takes the time out of her busy week to chat so we can check in with each other. She is a great travel buddy too.  I ♥ you, Jill.

Here is my card...hope you like it,
