I cant say thank you enough to EVERYONE. I dont think I can really express how thankful I am, how much you have blessed us and made things somewhat easier for us these past couple months.
Im just going to write a list, so bear with me. Ill also use first names, but not last, and theyre in no particular order, whichever came to my mind next as I wrote this list. Please dont be offended if I have forgotten you, it wasnt on purpose. Quite honestly, I have had so many gifts, calls, donations etc etc that I havent been able to keep everything and everyone straight.

Thank you for giving me the best 11 years of my life. Thank you for December 18th, 1999 when you went into Yahoo Chat and decided you liked my screen name and IMed me. Who would have thought a simple question like "Whats Ska Music" would lead to a decade of love, family, and friendship. Thank you for August 28th 99 when you proposed to me in front of The Empress Hotel, and thank you for saying "Yes" on December 29th 99 when we took our vows and got married. Thank you for being YOU.
And lastly, thank you for being my best friend, my lover, my confidante, my everything. I will always love you.
