Today is the day: The month of giveaways ends with my biggo birthday ending in zero. 60. Here are six things I’ve learned in the past six decades, in no particular order.
Friends are everything. If you’re lucky, you can count your family among this group.
Stop agonizing about the past. You can’t start sooner than now.
Every room needs a little purple in it.
Motherhood probably won’t be what you expected. But it will be wonderful.
More learning is never a bad investment.
Let your decisions be guided by your joy.
So far in my life, each decade has been even better than the one before. I cannot wait to see what this one brings! Thank you thank you thank you for all your kind wishes.
With love,
Denise

Happy Birthday, hope it was the best one yet. I have to say your email is the first one I read every day, I get so much joy for just seeing what others are doing in the “crafting world” Those who bring joy to others cannot keep it from themself.
