For the past few days, I've thought about what to write in this public diary. A thought or phrase will pop into my only to be dismissed as silly, trivial or I just get busy with other things.

But there is one thing I do want to say and it is a note of thanks. Thanks to whatever powers that be for the place that I am in today. I have a husband who supports and loves me, and whose company I adore and love in return. A daughter I giggle with and am just amazed with and I am able to stay at home with her all day and watch each tiny triumph.

I never thought I'd have that, my mom was a single working mom, so I expected something similiar. But here I am, watching the seasons pass and enjoying every day.

Thank you.
