Good morning!
I hope this note finds you well and enjoying the waning days of winter. I’m enjoying a sunny 68-degree afternoon following two weekend snowstorms.

Your One Word
Many of you shared your “one word” for 2024. Some of them included persevere, hope, reframe, and (like me) abide. Thank you for sharing with me!
