I still dream big too--and if it is God's plan, I know that everything will work out for your son. I know, it is hard to let go. I know it will come soon for us too.<BR/><BR/>I am glad that the writers conference was informative to you. I am sure when the timing is right, you will find the perfect publisher for your book :)<BR/><BR/>Blessings to you and yours.eph2810https://www.blogger.com/profile/09285857197237988640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27963326.post-544468504163701862007-05-09T19:45:00.000-07:002007-05-09T19:45:00.000-07:00Nadine,Your post tugged at my heart.
