I had the extreme pleasure and honor of meeting my first YLF friend in person this weekend! Debbie (Deborah) and I connected at our sons' university in Williamsburg, VA on Saturday during Family Weekend!

I had asked Deb to send me a picture so I would recognize her and she reminded me that she is the person who perches on the edge of her tub for WIW's but always crops her head! "Oh! you're the TUB person!". We should have had her perch on the railing at Crim Dell to show off those skills! We clearly need to see more of this beautiful face of hers in future WIW's. We were totally MOTG's this weekend, as it was about comfort and staying cool. When I was a student at this same school I was usually in sweats and a tshirt. This outfit was just as comfortable, but very YLF-inspired. Striped Loft skirt, Gap chambray, Skagen ceramic watch, J Crew flats, Banana Republic tote!

What a lovely opportunity to make a friend that would never ever have happened without this forum. I am always fascinated by how we find our way here and then make these connections. For me it always goes back to the tone that Angie sets for us - one of kindness and positive energy and connection.

Our boys met, so now my freshman has met another fellow student as he finds his place and his way at William & Mary. Deb offered my son her contact as she's 2 hours closer to the college, in case of emergency, and that just makes my heart swell.

Here's to Angie, the YLF forum and to future opportunities to see Debbie and more of you in person! Have a great week everyone!
