Hello Rhapsody, thanks so much for visiting my blog. I have tried more than 5 times tonight to get the spacing right, but nothing works. Also my blog background has disappeared. I was hoping to insert the photo that goes with this, before anyone read it. So if you get this message, please come see the picture.
Bless you! Sheila
