Your work is <strong>so important<\/strong>!<\/p>\n<p>This blogging thing is a new experience for me. I have lots to learn. Thank goodness for my irrationally patient firstborn son, Daniel, who is willing to show me over and over again how to do something on the computer until I finally understand how to do it myself. I\u2019m <strong>so<\/strong> thankful for him! He works so hard and has such creative ideas, and he has darling little girls and a wonderful wife that make my life so much richer.<\/p>\n<p>I know you will make my life richer, too. I look forward to getting to know you all as we share this journey of motherhood together.
