I still am not sure where Gladbutterfly comes from or how she got to Newsvine, as she must have come from a world far more advanced and caring then most. However, I have to say, I sure am honored and touched to be a friend. I have always been glad to read her comments that have a personal and caring touch, her photos are awesome and she just adds so much to Newsvine. I am glad she arrived !
