Today I'll say thank you to my husband. My better half. The person who has witnessed all of my trials and triumphs over the past 24 years.  My protector, provider and sometimes "sanity checker".  My co-navigator through these "parenting" waters. Grateful for his acceptance of me - flaws and all.  Loving me through it all. Who knew 24 years ago on FAMU's campus we would be here? It's been a journey...but quite an interesting and entertaining one. I can't wait to see what the new the next 24 have in store.  Unconditional love and acceptance is a wonderful thing. (And yes... He is also my shoe addiction enabler....)

Day 1... Grateful for my loving parents for giving me life and willingly sacrificed to mold me into the woman I am today.  They divorced when I was young, but my father was/still is ALWAYS THERE. My mother taught me how to look/act like a lady...but to have confident and an independent spirit (and my shoe addiction). For them I am grateful...
