This is the first, me urging you to be the second and next and next. We have to build from something.

Julie..... My oh my, every single word on every single line of ALL of these stories are just fantastic. I re-lived my yells at Brent Michael (there weren't that many, but he might tell a different story, like when he spilled black enamel paint on my olive green shag carpet, or when he crawled behind the couch and drew crayon figures all along the baseboard, and I know he remembers like I do the awful time he spilled a banana malt in my new car in the Phoenix August heat). These are wonderful insights, Julie, and you convey them with the absolute right words and scenarios. We actually see the events as we read. Good luck, Julie, I think you will go far with these tales from your heart.
Brent's Mom, Carole
