Author's Note:
Thanks for the reviews. It's been a very long time since I've written anything - I don't tend to stay with story lines but like to take characters and put them in different situations that seem more 'real life'. Speak Life is actually a song by TobyMac, who is an icon (if I can use that term) in the Christian music scene (he would argue with this if he were asked) - he was one third of the groundbreaking group DC Talk in the nineties; I encourage you to look him up - his latest album This is not a Test is his best yet. He wrote a song called Speak Life (album Eye on It, which is a great one, by the way) - and it is an actual concept - similar to "making sure your bucket is full and filling other's buckets". TobyMac's team has a Speak Life page on pinterest and the Facebook page sends out speak life memes. Since my oldest child entered school, this is something I've tried to teach him even when I've failed to 'speak life' to him; we back up and start over again. I took the concept of Speak Life with Clara and Cora and introduced them to Jane is a situation that was 100% foreign to her and she would be very insecure in; thus needing confidence and security. Jane needs friends outside of the FBI. This was supposed to be a standalone but I might follow Jane's adventures into motherhood (and it is a grand adventure) - if I have the time.
