“Bubblous? Bubblous”, as she’s looking at me with her big blue eyes, tucking on my shirt, pointing to the TV.. “Bubblous, Momma, Bubblous Puppies, Momma.” Well, that was a first. Never before has she ever asked to watch a specific TV show. But it was obvious that she was determined to watch Bubble Guppies. The…
I love people. I enjoy meeting new people and hearing about their life story. I had the pleasure of doing exactly that today. One of the reasons I like to meet people is because I’m always fascinated by the fact that a lot of the stories I hear aren’t much different from mine. Yes,…
