Being a new Step Mom to a pre-teen daughter who lived out of state, getting to know each other and bond was challenging. Over the years I would randomly text her "Thinking of You." I never knew if it mattered or not, but kept it up. Last week Lindsay graduated from High School and we drove 18 hours from Wisconsin to New York to be there. The first day we arrived she had a gift for me. It was your "Thinking of You" piece. I love your work! I have a couple and they are precious. I cried. This piece is especially meaningful as she is going on to college for Marine Biology. It gave her the opportunity to tell me all those random texts mattered.... and that she loved me!
