The Letters After My Name

Each year I look at the Friends for Life Canada program and I am amazed by the wealth of knowledge and experience found in its presenters. I see names that I have read about. I see people whose work I have followed. I see an entire alphabet behind their names and I think, "Wow! How lucky am I to be heading off to see them?"

When the time comes, I pack my suitcase and I begin to panic. What the heck am I doing?
I am going to catch up with old friends and meet new ones!

Seriously though, who do I think I am to be going to this?
I am one lucky person!

I don't have a lot of letters after my name and yet I am listed as being "one of them"?

I didn't have an answer to that one. I have been blessed to have been a part of the Canadian CWD conferences since they began. My role has grown over the years and their faith in me never ceases to amaze me. I always prepare for the trip wondering when they will realize that I am just a mom. When will they stop asking me back? This weekend made me realize the answer to that question.
