I am so thankful to God.  I never desired to be a wife before I gave…

    Dear Margo Blue,

    Dear Margo Blue, You did a whole lot- a lot of good and a lot of bad, but I’m so proud of you for learning.  You experienced a lot in life at an early age but the good thing is that you matured early.   Your 20’s were a mess!  You jacked up ALOT, girl!  But again I’m proud of you for learning.  You truly learned a lot, and those learnings came with a lot of losses and a lot of tears.  But you got thorugh it- you are so strong.   25 was an outstanding year for you.  At 25 you gave your life to Christ and you were…
