Illustrations...

Hi everyone!

I wanted to take a moment and give you a little update on the progress of my book. I met with my illustrator, Rick Steinhauser the other day, and he showed me all of the spreads he had completed;  needless to say, I was very excited about what he had accomplished!  Out of 12 spreads we only have 6 more to finish, and then off to Halo Publishing to begin the proofs and then the printing process.  Wow!  What a journey this has been.  This journey has put a smile on my face and joy in my heart to watch this project grow from a thought to an actual dream come true.

I just want to say - Thank you Lord for putting this desire in my heart to write Caleb a story about how much I love him.  Thank you for giving me the greatest gift of my life!

My illustrator, Rick Steinhauser, came over this morning and showed me the storyboards that he has drawn for my book.  They look amazing!  Rick is extremely gifted, and I am blessed that he is doing this for me.

The cover of "I Love You to the Moon" is completed!

This is my first post on my new blog about my first children's book, "I Love You to the Moon."  I am very excited about this journey on which God is taking me.  I wrote this book for my son, Caleb.  He is the light of my life and the joy of my heart.  My desire is that anyone reading this book will be blessed in the same way that I have been blessed with the love for my child.

The cover illustration was done by a very dear friend, Rick Steinhauser.  He is wonderfully talented and he is in the process of illustrating the entire book - which should be out in late summer/early fall.
