The other day I was looking through old family photos and realized that time has passed so quickly. I have been so fortunate in my life so have such a wonderful and loving family and a great group of friends. It really seemed like yesterday that my sisters were born and I was watching them learn how to talk and how to walk. It seems like yesterday that I met Gordon, but at 5 years old that means we met over 2 decades ago! I really never took the time to stop and appreciate what I have, let alone take the time to really thank those around me.

As I this time passes, I can't help but start to see everyone as having gone full circle. From my parents who can enjoy their time free of work and kids after working so hard all these years, to my sisters who are entering the workforce and post graduate studies, and also to my friends who are moving into the joys of marriage, every single one of you has been such an important part of my life. If I didn't specifically name you, please don't feel bad because that probably means I'm carefully crafting a better picture/tribute to you!
