Butterfly Thoughts

Ooohhhh..... thank you. Thank you THANK YOU!!! I’m so happy to hear your voice again. Listening to Butterfly Thoughts I was transported into whimsy and wonder and even though it was only 5 minutes in length it removed hours of “the collective stressors” our nation is undergoing. I want to listen to the next episode but have decided to savor the levity of this one. I look forward to tomorrow. Would these be appropriate to share with my middle schoolers to begin art class with? I love you Jill. I miss you - I think maybe I miss you more now but that’s alright. I forgive you. ☺️😎🤓❤️😍
