Happy 2008

As I reflect back on the roller coaster ride of emotions that 2007 brought, I think most importantly I am very grateful for the "wake up" call.

I have learned to be more compassionate with family, that believing in myself I can accomplish things I never thought possible (75 miles on a bike when I couldn't even ride a mile in May… thanks Dad for being my inspiration). I took time to enjoy every moment I have with family, tried to focus on the future instead of wasting time regretting the past, and most of all remember that the little things in life do count when they are precious… don't let them escape unnoticed.

So I toast to 2008...to love a little deeper, speak a little sweeter, and never take one single breath for granted!

I look forward to 2008, with anticipation... knowing that there are memories in the making right around the corner. This year is going to be full of milestones in life... and I look forward to celebrating those with the people I love.

So here's to 2008, may it be everything I know it can be and more!
