I love this picture of you.💖 Fall is my favorite. It's been time for a fresh start over the yrs, esp when I had kids still in school & when I was a substitute teacher. When I see the leaves change I think of long drives w my kids, & when I think of long drives, I think of us singing to your songs🍁🧡

Carole, I've been a fan since I was a teenager and discovered Tapestry. Can you help my husband and I achieve our dream? It would mean SO much to both of us.
