My Dad.
I will admit, I am a total Daddy's Girl. He's a gentle giant. I always felt safe and protected with Dad around, yet his lap was my favorite place to sit and read a book. It definitely helps that we are bibliophiles. Our love of learning will mean we will never run out of things to talk about.
My Brothers.
Tony, Chris, and Drew are truly 3 of my greatest friends. They are the only ones who know exactly what it was like to grow up the same way I grew up. We have decades of shared memories. I can absolutely say they are my friends and not just my brothers.
My Husband.
Jonny is an insanely wonderful husband and father. Sometimes I think he is just insane, but the crazy ones are the fun ones. He has taught me that everyone has a story that should be heard. The "creepy" homeless guy may end up being a very missed friend (John Henry). He also taught me to trust myself. The "creepy" homeless guy may be a creep and to run away. We love to have adventures together. We love to laugh and enjoy life. We love our family. Our life has its ups and downs, but it's a great ride. It is perfect for us.
My Son.
James is my little man. He is fearless and funny. I love watching his little brain work when he figures something out. I love his inquisitive mind. I love how he tries to be so big. He is so different from my girls. He is stingy with his kisses, but gives the best hugs. I find myself missing him when he goes to sleep at night.
