Everyone should get to meet Monica...

So, I decided to join a Valentine's Day swap this year. I have always been so envious as I watched other people prepare for a mail swap and decided this was to be the one. I am a firm believer in that all things happen for a reason, and this has just affirmed that for me. My swap partner is a beautiful soul named Monica. She lives in Italy and has the most glorious blog- http://The-White-Bench.blogspot.com . We have only written a few times, but I feel such a connection with her. I just feel her heart in everything she writes and in all the lovely things she creates. I have been busily gathering and creating and will be sending her goodies in time for her to receive them for Valentine's Day. I can sense already that she will be a friend for a long time to come.

  3. Welcome to Blogland!!!!!!!!!!! You are right about Monica she is an angel! I just love her & her blog. You are so lucky to have her as a swap partner. Enjoy your trip of learning in Blogland! It is so much fun to meet so many people! I have made friends that truly speak to my heart (Monica is certainly one of them). Before I started my Blog I was thirsty for friends that "got me". Most of my friends (love them I do) just do not have that much in common with me & I was sort of lonely. Not anymore. Now, when I come home or get up in the morning... I RUN to the computer & see what is going on!

  4. Thank You Charlene! Your encouragement means so much to me and helps motivate me to get this blog to the point of being eye-candy, as is Monica's. Getting to meet her has been, in itself, worth the process of starting a blog. I look so forward to all the new friends I will meet.
