The people you meet along the way….

I met this amazing woman by chance at a craft event (crop) we think in 2015. I’ve thanked my lucky stars every day since.

It’s always find weird how the people you need in your life somehow find you. My friend, Lori, is probably the kindest person I know. She’s smart, fierce, a kick ass business woman, mother and wife. Even before I started living on the road we didn’t get to spend nearly enough time together as we lived quite far apart. It didn’t matter because as soon as we see each other, it’s that familiarity built over the years. We could and have, sat for hours just talking about anything and everything. I cherish every moment we get to “hang out” together. It is even more special as this year our group is missing one of our most important members, Amanda. We are all doing a pretty good job of keeping it “together” and remembering all the great times we’ve had at these very tables creating and chatting.

Please don’t wait until you lose someone to show your appreciation to those you love. Make that call. Facetime your people just to say hi. You will never regret it. I would lay down my life for these ladies and their families. I hope they know how much I love them.
