Thank you so much Gail. I'm thrilled how Delaney took it upon herself to make the bookmarks. They turned out great! Brindsley and Jeff are happy to help and spread the word. :) A gift to have a team.

Many months ago you sweetly complimented me with that “name”. It was undeserved but I never forgot it. You apparently did forget. lol. And because you invented it, it is no wonder you love it. LOL.

I sure did! LOL! I'm cracking up. :) I did say that didn't I. Thank you for reminding me and I'm glad you didn't forget.

Delaney, you are a runner, poet and creative artist ( love the bookmarks). Although you are uniquely you, they say the “apple doesn’t fall far from the tree”. With such a special family tree, I hope you will continue to share your gifts and skills with the rest of the world just like your precious Mom and Dad. ♥️

Hi Julie! I’ve followed your essays and read a couple of your books-including A Real Ballbuster. So I’ve developed a sense of life in Family Hughes. Delaney’s haiku captures the spirit of life. Hers and the entire team. Stepping back, I have the feeling of watching a play with countless acts. Delaney’s mirroring of her Mother’s skills seems an act all by itself! Best wishes for a good turnout Saturday. Looking forward to the next act. ;-)
