A new world...

So I woke up this morning and I could feel the hope in the air. I know some of you may not have voted for Obama but all of us should feel privileged to be living in America at this time and to be apart of this historic moment. I am so proud to be an American today. Because we elected this first black man to be president, because we had a huge voter turn out, because people stood in line for hours to make their voices heard!!! Anyway enough of my effusions ... There is something else I have been meaning to do and haven't yet. A couple of weeks ago I accepted a challenge to tell 5 people in my life how grateful I am for them so here goes...

Kim- You are the best sister I could ask for. Thanks for listening to my rantings, for being so supportive and for all the fun we have. Also thanks for producing the cutest, most enjoyable kids!

Kenn- Thanks for always being there. No matter what I ask or need I know you will be there when I ask. Also thanks for all the games, movies and fun! If not for my family I wouldn't have much of a social life but that is OK with me because you guys are my best friends.

Melanie- Thanks for being the most loyal friend ever. And thanks for helping keep me sane.

Angie- Thanks for being so easy to get a long with. Thanks for making me laugh frequently and for all the great conversations. Also thanks for putting up with all my stuff, rantings and obsessions.

David- Thanks for being the best brother-in-law ever. Thanks for all the help and for giving me so many new experiences like Taiwan, military bases in Prauge, Greek food, and countless others.

Ok so this is not a complete list, I have many other people in my life that I am very grateful for. So please everyone that is reading this, Thanks for all you do for me! You may be on the next list :)

You're welcome, and thanks for all you do for me! That reminds me, we haven't tried to enter any Czech military bases lately. We should plan a trip!

It is production of kids that really make my place in the world:) And by the way, I feel the same about you.
