Thanks so much for your visit!

It's probable that Ms. Barbara recognized your talents at that young age and had enough foresight to encourage them. Those formative years are so important. When you first mentioned those stories with illustrations I was thinking you should compile them in a book and bam!....next paragraph you have sent her a finished book, and signed at that! As good as you felt, you most likely made her feel even better knowing how much of an impact she made in your life. Good times!!
