It Has Been Too Long!

November 10, 2008

I cannot believe that it has been so long since I last contributed to this site. I wrote in my last Editor's Corner in January that I was not feeling well and would be unable to maintain the site as well as I would have liked. And little did I know that it would take almost a year to get back to it. I would like to proudly announce that I gave birth to my first child on August 6th. It was the morning sickness that caused me to stop working on the site. I was terribly sick for the first 4 months. Now that my little girl is 3 months old and I am feeling up to it I will try to pick up where I left off by providing uplifting and inspirational news, stories, books and more for you to enjoy.

With Great Happiness,
Janine
