Bringing this picture book to fruition has been a year-long process and a life-long dream.  Since I am not an artist nor a writer by trade, it has been a steep learning curve for me to learn how to make this story into reality.  I am so grateful to my husband for always believing in me, and to my girls for helping me to grow each day.  Special thanks to my sister who put her graphic design talent to work on my behalf for too many hours that we've lost count.
