Make A Difference Monday!
For Make A Difference Monday, I am challenging you (and me) to send a card to someone every day this week. "No one has a birthday" you may say. "Who could I send a card to?" Dr. Seuss says "Oh the places we could go." Dr. Deanna says, "Oh the places we could...
Escape the Devil’s Room.
