Here is the deal. I have an amazing husband. He loves me for me. I love him more than you will never understand. 

I probably don't deserve him. I know a few people think that as well. But here's the thing. It doesn't matter how we feel. J picked me. And not just when he was 20 and horny. Every morning, he makes the choice to stay with me. And every night he comes home to me. He loves me. 

And that is good enough for me. 

WE have two beautiful daughters. They are smart and sassy. They love Elmo, squirrels, and Daddy. They think I am pretty cool too. 

Again, good enough for me. 

My past wasn't sunshine and roses. If it had been, I wouldn't be the person I am. And you know, that person is pretty great. 

So, please, continue to think whatever you want about me. I am evil, awesome, worthless, funny, pathetic, caring, and so many other things that you will never know. 

My friends lift me up when I fall. my critics make me stand up a little straighter. My faith keeps me strong. And the love of my husband and daughters is the thing I cherish most. 

I am so lucky, so blessed, to have love in my life. 

That is all. Good night.
