Dearest Kathy.

I always fret over what to title my posts. So, I am just going to write and hope that something comes to me by the time I'm done. If the title ends up being jibberish, you'll know why.

I've been at my job for about three months now and a lot of things have changed. Starting on Monday of next week, I will be the go-to girl. The brilliant lady who trained me, Kathy, is leaving and so everything is essentially passing to me. It's a little nerve wrecking, but I know I'm fully capable of taking on the task. Kathy believes that I'm ready and I know she wouldn't say that unless she truly believed it. That's just the type of person she is.

I've come to love Kathy like family. It may seem odd, since I've only known her for a few months, but she is an amazing woman and that is just the kind of impact she's had on me. I feel as if I've known her my whole life and though I know she needs to embark on a new journey, I will miss her dearly. She's a kindred spirit, the type of person who can walk into a room and make everyone feel loved. She lights up the studio in the morning, every morning, and I will miss that. I consider myself lucky to have spent these past three months with her. She has given me endless amounts of advice and I hope that she will continue to do so. I wish her all the happiness and luck in the world as she takes on life's next challenge. She has made my heart feel light, joyous, and full these past few months. May she feel the same going forward.

Just a sweet little note this morning, as I attempt to return to blogging. Baby steps, so I don't feel pressured or overwhelmed.

Have a lovely and wonderful Friday!
