Hi Mrs. Cariello, You must be receiving hundreds, if not thousands, of comments on your book trailer, Fox News interview, and book. I just wanted to take a minute to tell you how much I have enjoyed reading your blogs, and especially your beautiful book. It’s touching and funny, and it gives the reader the chance to experience just a bit of what your family is like.
