I’m so glad things worked out for us to connect and then have coffee, too. (Seriously, that coffee shop has got to be my all time favorite!) :) Blessings, sweet friend…I look forward to our next hug and chat!

Actually, I know I do. :) You are a sweetheart, and I loved hugging your neck and chatting with you! Can’t wait til next year…or maybe before then? I love this community and am so grateful for you and your heart. Blessings!

(Which I was thinking that it’s funny we refer to it as a *weekend* cause it was more like half of a week. Anyway. ;)) I will gladly embrace the title of #AllumeHotness…that was a funny and special memory that will always make me smile. You bless me, friend…and if you’re ever in Chicago, YES! I will gladly make the trek into the city. :)

And Uganda…yes, Uganda. And Sole Hope. And the way that my heart hasn’t stopped bleeding for these children. It still brings tears to my eyes. I’m praying about blogging a trip for them…I think it’s something He is asking me to do. Thankful. :)

Your effusive smile and warm humor made me feel welcome right away. Thank you for saying yes to me and Julie and sharing your room Wednesday night. I can’t wait to see you again. And I’ll bring cake!

You are beautiful, inspiring, and such a blessing! And that cake is on the list for next year…it’s a must! As is a BIG bag of “there’s-no-way-I’m-getting-sick” meds, too! :) Love you!

It was one of the highlights of my trip! I don’t even know what to say except I think I love you. :-) I can’t wait to see what happens with your book!
