I’m so excited, Colleen and Robbie! I was wondering when this would open up. What a great theme. Who doesn’t have dreams! That can go so many directions – dreams we have for ourselves, our children and grandchildren. We have weird dreams at night that sometimes give us chills. People interpret dreams. Lots of possibilities here. 🙂 xxx

Thanks so much, Marsha. That’s what Robbie and I thought, too. There are many possibilities to write using the theme of dreams. 💜

I’ve got to put on my thinking cap and step outside my reality box that I always write in. This will be a good stretch!
