Dear Valerie,

Wonderful! I loved your assignment. Your sharing of your own thoughts as you started out on the adventure hit me where I live. I too struggled. I couldn't find the pages and found it frustrating. I'm glad you shared, I thought it was just me being lame...lol I too hate to be behind in things, I am always on time also. I was tempted to quit but God did not let me. A good friend chastised me about my lack of participation and I thought "hmmmpphf, the nerve, I am not a slacker" and so I got back into the game, even though I was behind. lol

I am so glad you hung in there. I can see that you have been blessed and your participation blessed me. In fact, Martha and her industriousness even spurred me on in my real life... you did such a good job of portraying her and her focus on her gifts. :)

Thank you for participating. You blessed me and encouraged me. I hope to see you in the next adventure!

Blessings,
