Make People Smile

That's what I'm about.

I'm a wife, mother, author, public speaker, historic preservationist, and a professional volunteer.

I admit to enjoying Facebook more than dishes.

I talk to strangers, compliment the barista, thank the hotel housekeeper and the mailman.

In short, I believe that it doesn't take much effort to make the world a better place. It simply takes a LOT of people doing a LITTLE bit each day.
