supported.

 

I sincerely believe that humans survive best when surrounded by a network of people who love them. God has placed me in the most wonderful network of people who love me so.

 

I am embarking on a huge adventure, and it's kind of gutsy to do stuff like that. I'm a strong gal, sure. But every now and then everyone needs a little reassurance. Luckily, I've got that coming in from all directions these days. How blessed I am.

 

A couple of friends need a shout out.

 

Yosi. There's not a lot I can say, simply because your love leaves me speechless. Thanks for being wonderful, even though I know it comes naturally. Thanks for supporting all of my gutsy ideas. Thanks for winking at me even when I feel puffy. Oh, and you're the best dad I know.

 

Mom. You have always been there to cheer me on and it does not go unnoticed. I appreciate all of your help; both with the boys, and on the phone in the afternoons. I am incredibly lucky that we not only have a fantastic mother/daughter relationship - but also a wonderful friendship. We will (hopefully) have to switch to decaf soon, but I will forever cherish our coffee dates. Thank you.

 

MotherInLaw. I admire you, and the home you run. Thank you for feeding my husband when I'm busy and when he wants meals I cannot pronounce. Also, thank you a lot for putting up with my whining on the nights where you so kindly give me those estrogen shots. *for the record: the needles are giant. 

There are more of you (you know who you are!), and love you all. I am so lucky to be surrounded by some of the finest individuals around. I appreciate all of your support, encouragement, and love.

 

Until next time,

Carmen
