Have you ever gotten up in the morning and knew that your day was just going to be great?
I have had a few of those days in my lifetime, and today, is one of those days.
*First of all it's Valentine's Day. A great day to share our expressions of love to one another. I have had such an outpouring of love in my life lately, and I am lucky enough to be able to share my story with so many more people as of today.
I have talked about Time Out for Women and how much I love the event. I always come away with a "recharged spiritual battery" and a commitment to be a better person. This year was no exception and I wanted to let the wonderful people in charge of the event know how inspired I was when I left. So I left a comment on their website. About a month ago, I received an email from them asking me if I would be willing to write an essay to be featured on their blog.
Are you kidding?
Yes! Absolutely!
So as of today- Valentine's Day- the "Day of Love"- I am a published author (well kind of). I can't think of a better day for me to share my story of such great love than today.

I am so excited about this. :)
*Another reason today is going to be great is that I will have the opportunity tonight to speak and sing at a meeting for some of the fabulous Young Women in our church. My sister-in-law asked me if I would speak at their New Beginnings meeting. It is a meeting that introduces the Young Women program to girls who are turning 12 this year.
Some of you may be wondering, "Why is she so excited to speak in public?"
I don't know. Call me crazy, but I actually don't mind speaking in public. Especially when I get to sing as well as speak. My only fear is being boring. I guess I could just reveal my fuzzy head if it looks like people are falling asleep. ;)
Here's to a great day! I hope that you all have a wonderful Valentine's Day!
Thank you for showering me with so much love so I could have something to write an essay about. ;)
