Lisa,

Dr. English and his staff will take good care of you. Not much longer now and you will be sitting her on the losers bench. I will keep you in my thoughts on your big day and wishing you a speedy recovery.

Lisa, thank you for the kind words. My thoughts will be with you, Eraser and Kasey on Weds. In the meantime we are already scootin' on over to make room for the 3 of you!! Just two more sleeps and it will be your time! Try to do something nice for yourself today or tomorrow. Take some time to just enjoy your families and dream about the wonderful gift that you will be given tomorrow. It honestly is one of the best gifts you can give not only yourself but also your family.

Hi Weza...

I will be thinking about you on the 21st. I have 6 kids and went through the same fears. Although I feel that the mom that they really want and need is under all of that weight. To all of you 21st I am excited for you to all start your new life!!!

No regrets!!!
