Does God Send Valentines?

Remember those tiny valentine cards we received from classmates in elementary school? And how much we hoped for something special from a certain boy?

Have You Lost Your Good Friends?

Ellen is a natural hostess.  Her townhome is cozy and comfortable but not decorated so perfectly that you feel uncomfortable sitting on her furniture.  She always makes you feel at home…never too busy to stop and spend an hour with you in her kitchen.
