Wow, Elisa, you are learning how to deal with some drastic changes in your body. As women, we deal so strongly with the image conscious society in which we live. As I age, all my saggy, baggy skin and my "love handles" make me reluctant to get in a bathing suit as well. But underneath the skin is the real beautiful you whom God made. He's gifted you with a loving, compassionate heart that reaches out to others even through your difficulties. I know. I'm one of the recipients of your great ideas--the Fingerprint lady.

Prayers, Janis

Thank you so much. It is already weird to see my body not be mine, but then hearing my teens talk about youth--it doesn't seem far away enough yet for me to be removed from youth. Aging is really affects us, it is its own type of grief, even as we gain wisdom.

I remember you! You were going to do a series! How is that going?
