The way I feel about him...

Well, folks it's Spring Time and as we meet the Solstice and Father's Day this Sunday, I thought it would be appropriate to bring you a little bit of my magic. Through song and an interview we will explore how do we feel about dad, lovers, husbands, brothers, sons, and friends. Today I am letting the womyn do all the talking in all different languages and perspectives. Here is what I have for you today, just a preview, cause you know I will mix this order up.--Andrea
