 I first met Cheri Mueller of Chanhassen and Sally Miller of Chicago about a year and a half ago when they wrote their first book together. "Walk With Me: Two Friends on a Spiritual Journey Together," was a collection of thoughts, poems, recipes, and conversations the two best friends from college sent to one another, back and forth via letters, emails, and phone conversations, first as friends living in the same city just outside of Chicago, and then as long distance friends who didn't let the miles get in the way of their heart to heart talks and exchanges about love, marriage, motherhood, life and their faith.
