I loved Kiki and her story! She is the epitome of being handed lemons and making lemonade, and finding an inner core of strength along the way.

Kiki's story resonates; haven't we all known someone or are ourselves in a place we never envisioned and wondered how we got here, so far from where we thought our life would be at this point? The cherry on the sundae of this book is the scrapbooking tips; not previously a scrapbooker, I've been inspired to try, and been amazed at the results. Kiki's world is wonderful, and I'm glad I was invited into it. You will be, too.
