Of  It arrived two weeks ago. But something pulled at me last night to finally pick it up. I'm really glad I did. I started out with the intention page and Wow! I didn't realize the stuff I was holding inside. Or the fears. I'll be jumping into Chapter 1 today. I just need to gather my colored pencils and whatever else I might want to add.  xo Alicia

Just a few of the recent pages I've worked on. Of course they're not totally completed. The journaling/the words are still missing. I'm contemplating what words fit there or what words to I need to get out. xo Alicia
