Here is what a few of my clients have to say.

Now, here is my real résumé:

I was a good friend to my husband of 40 years (who is now gone). My marriage vows meant what I said, so you can depend on my word.

I am a loving mother to my sons and their wives, and Oma to my 9 grandchildren.
I listen to, laugh, cry, dream, and rejoice with them. I never let my profession or anything else come before these relationships.

I was a faithful daughter to my parents, also now gone, a faithful sister, and a good friend to my friends, who are to me.

I surrender daily to God's leading in my life.

I would be at best mediocre at my job if these other things were not true.
