Thanks Billie!

Peace Sista!

I was swimming one morning with some girlfriends ... one of my favorite things to do, and Billie showed up (complete with her trademark peace-sign). We got talking about our kids and I told her about my "Kenyan Son". After swimming she asked me to come to her car to "talk to a man about a thing". I was perplexed about her keeping a man in her hot car, but followed her out anyway. Needless to say, Billie is now one of Benson's sponsors and I am truly grateful!
