Before I get to the card for tonight, I'd like to tell you a little story! 999 blog posts ago I started to blog as I needed a place to load my challenge cards and I thought it would be easier to blog than try to wend my way through sites where you can share photos. 999 blog posts ago, I never thought that I would still be blogging. 999 blog posts ago, I would never have thought that I would get to know some amazing people along the way.
