Just finished watching the signing of the papers and I am not ashamed to say that I have the excitement of a child on Christmas morning who just discovered a really cool box to play in!
I have some things stewing in my mind, but I said aloud for the first time today that no longer can my life be just about me, from now on, it's about us!
