A Paper Plate And An Invitation

Happy February. Today I'm thinking about this time last year, when I was gearing up to go to Wisconsin for their annual Counselors' Conference, when we could still connect physically in a pre-conference workshop, just before the pandemic caused us to press pause and stop shaking hands. {Sigh}. Cue the 🎶: I wanna go back.
