      Thanks, Ashley. My brain is so full right now. It’s going to take a few days to recover, I think. But I have lots to share!

    I just LOVE how you take time to invest in yourself/your blog and also how you share. You’re incredible!
    sorry that you were having troubles on my website…I never quite know what to do when that happens. But, I know that if it persists, I’ll get on the phone with my host.
    In any case, it’s always wonderful to see you. I hope your wednesday is good! HUGS

      I love that you were thinking of me, Chris. It was so amazing. On Monday we were running all over the city going to events, from a luncheon with Save the Children, Gates Foundation and One.org to the UN headquarters for a factivism pane. So much to take in!
