Your BIO shines Connie, with all the cherished attributes of an ideal human being. Nothing more powerful than love of family and belief in humility and forgiveness. Your words touch humanity splendidly my friend.

A lovely view into your heart and soul dear friend. Some things I knew - some delightful surprises - "astrologer," "dancer," "aroma therapist." Thank you for sharing this intimate view. Good luck in the contest.

So good to hear from you and so glad you liked I Am. It was an amazing personal journey into the soul. What a great idea asking your granddaughter to make up a "bio." That is a treasure and will be fun to review as she gets older. Happy Mother's Day to you. And, sigh, I forgot to wish you a Happy Birthday. Have a wonderful day. Hugs and blessings!

I dearly loved your poem Andrea used as an example Sam. It was exquisite! I hope I commented on it. Thank you. I spoke to my granddaughter and had her write a list bio poem of herself. She is only eight but she came up with some great descriptions of herself. I hope you enjoy Mother's Day! xxoo
