THANK YOU!

Thank you for what you have done and what you are doing. We feel in the last week like a giant weight has been lifted of our shoulders and we have so many people to thank for it. Your financial support and prayer make us feel like we can take on the world. Honestly, truly and sincerely...thank you for being a blessing.

My thank you list!
Disclaimer: While said party (Nicole) has made every effort to remember and document all the parties her family owes a huge amount of gratitude to, she reserves the right to grovel at the feet of anyone she has inadvertently missed due to missed organization, simple oversight or lack of sleep.

OK...moving on...
