This has been a very good year for me. I have a great family and friends whom I am very thankful for. I am also planning my big move to NC in June. I went through a very scary time a few months ago with a nodule that doctors found during an examination. Thank God it wasnt anything serious. Thank you to all of you who lifted me up in prayer.

I have always wanted to write a children's book, but thought no one would be interested in it. Well I met someone through a book fair at our school and we started talking and I told her the general idea I had for my book. She called a friend who is a publisher and told him about me and the book I was wanting to write. Well I have two chapters left and when I am through, the publishing company wants me to send them a copy when it is finished. Hopefully, that dream wil come true.

I have also had the pleasure of spending a lot of time with my best friend Surfergirl. She is a lot of fun to be around and have been through a lot. Since I have been through most of the issues she is dealing with, I have tried to be there for her. Divorce is a difficult thing to go through!!!!!!!! I love ya sis!!!!!!!

I also have a friend who means the world to me. This friend is very genuine, caring, kind, and very funny. I thank God everyday that God brought this person into my life. My friend has been there for me lately with a lot of life's ups and downs and I hope I can always return the favor. It's hard to find a friend that you have so much in common with and just enjoy talking to. I just want to tell my friend thank you so much for being yourself and don't ever change who you are!!!!!!!!!!!!
