Linda,

 

You sound like the kind of person I'd like as a friend and we have lots of things in common. The one that stands out the most right now is that we were both slated to be teachers, but didn't follow through.

Linda,

 

What a great list! There are things you put on yours that I wish I had thought of. The love you have for your family shines through all of it. I wish more of us openly appreciated our parents, spouses, and children as much as you do. You've set the bar really high. I'm not sure I'm as good at praising my family as I should be. Thanks for reminding me I need to do that more.
