Raising gfgs is pretty much hooverific. News to you all, I'm sure.![]()
It's just time to batten down hatches, grit teeth, and rattle beads for gfg. (Maybe change my phone #???? Nah.... tempting as the thought is.)
Everything happens for a reason. I do believe that with all my heart. These hidden reasons are really taking a toll.
I am reminded again that I am so lucky to be traveling this road with you guys. Thank you, truly.
