A Note From Sarah.

I e-mailed David and Sarah. They are two lovely people I have known for years, and each from before they met and married! Sarah and I are close in age. She has 3 little adorable ones now and is a wonderful musical artist. Talking with her always helps me find some clarity and solace. We both torment ourselves with our own endless thoughts, I suspect. I don't talk with her enough.
