Kate said born I have zero idea where this will go. Five minutes. Born I wonder how many babies have been born during C19. I wonder even more how many were unborn, due to abortion?

Five Minute Friday – Forward
Kate said forward With last week’s word being “normal” – and nothing is, what is there to look forward to? Webster’s says forward is… In the direction one is facing or traveling; toward the front.
