There is something so amazing about having girlfriends. You guys make me laugh hysterically and cry at the same time! It has been so fun to get to know all of you, talk to you, and share life experiences with you. You girls teach me so much about life; you help me to understand and appreciate the differences in other people. You teach me how to be a better wife and mother. You share your recipes and your stories and take me shopping with you. You even get books from the library for me and so so so so so much more. And nobody can squeeze secrets out of me between 0400-0600 better than you guys can.
I'm sure that by now you all know that things have been really rough over in my neck of the woods. I want to thank each and every one of you who has shown such kindness towards me over the last little while, and you all know who you are. Even in the midst of your own lives with your families and your own set of problems, you take time out to inquire about me, call me, and even give me some tough love. You will never know how much your friendships mean to me. You guys truly make me feel like everything is going to be OK even while facing the biggest demons I have ever known. Even though this set of trials in my life isn't anywhere near over, please know that I am not just putting on a happy face but that I am genuinely happy to be around you and feel privileged that we can share our lives with each other. I love all of you!!

Steph, you are the powerhouse and you know who is on your side. I can sympathize with all of you feelings. Continue to press on, one step and then another. Life continues and you are doing your best. Everyone always tells me it will get better and it eventually does....just hang on! You and your husband will be stronger because of the difficulties now, I promise!
