Music helps me. For as long as I can remember I have sang along to my favorite songs and other tunes that I just couldn’t escape. For every major milestone in my life, I can associate a song. Certain lyrics speak to me and make me feel better; or worse depending on my mood. But…
I am thrilled to have Angela of Tread Softly (formerly known as Tiaras & Trucks) on Letters For You! Angela has always been a big supporter of Letters For Lucas and I have always admired her writing, especially her contributions to Write on Edge, where she serves as Managing Editor.

Home: the place where my husband and son are. Both people bring so much comfort and joy to my life, but I am truly at my happiest in one of two other places; walking along the beach with the warm sun kissing my face, watching seagulls fly overhead, getting lost in my thoughts while at…
It’s already mid-November. Thanksgiving is ONE WEEK FROM TODAY!!! How did that happen? Five weeks after that, it’s Christmas!! Have you even thought about Christmas shopping? I haven’t!
