Thank you for your lovely comments. I clicked on your name and joy leaped into my heart as I saw the hummingbird photo. My mom died 8 years ago and told me before she died that she would visit me as a hummingbird. I cannot begin to tell you the amazing stories that have taken place since her passing. Thank you for connecting, you will have a special place amongst my friends. Yes I will be starting back in January, but feel free to catch up on all my archives till then. Love to have you in the Empoweing Space community Lydia
