I know I say it all the time because it is true: I have the best friends ever! My friends never cease to encourage and bless me. As The Salesman and I talked about the day ahead of us, I shared that Lisa was preparing and delivering lunch today. He asked, "Which Lisa?" After I answered him, I stopped and thought what a good question that was because I have been blessed with several Lisa friends. As one Lisa bent low today and slid a dish she'd prepared into the oven, I realized that all ... Read More about Finding Beauty in Every Face & Place – A Lisa Kind of Friend
