The gift of a love story on Valentine's Day

French Inspirationhis was not an ordinary day in the life of Jennifer Bowen.  She was going on a journey, not just any journey mind you, but she was traveling abroad.





French InspirationAs she dreamed of what magical places she would see in France, she made stacks of her things that needed to be packed in her suitcase.



French InspirationAs she folded each lovely garment she dreamed of meeting Randy when she arrived.  She carefully packed her belongings and daydreamed a bit.

A love letter was sitting next to the vase.  It was from Randy...she read

 "I am counting the hours until you are in my arms again."




She was young, in love and going to Paris to study fashion in the fashion capital of the world.  She thought that her heart would surely burst with joy.
