Beth, the world is a much better place due to family and friends. The giraffe with the critters was a sweet illustration of how friends come in all sorts of shapes and sizes. :)

Beth … I love that quote. I’ve often felt that the characters I met in a book were friends – except for the villains – and that’s why I hated to put the book down. ;-)

My friends have flooded my head. Which is okay since they fulfill me more than most of the real ones in life.
