July Monthly Wrap-up

I can’t believe that July has ended. Where did the time go? This month was bittersweet. On July 20, I celebrated my one year wedding anniversary and on July 26, I sadly reflected on the loss of my mom six years ago. The month came with the usual life challenges, but by the grace of God I rose above them and pressed on.

  1. Happy Anniversary! and ((HUGS))

    You are doing great with your new release challenge and it’s always good news to be ahead on your Goodreads challenge.

  2. Belated congratulations on your one-year anniversary and hugs for missing your mom. I can’t imagine.
