Today is Thanksgiving here in the U.S. and I just want to take a minute to say how thankful I am to my family, especially Anne, who is the most amazing wife a guy could wish for.  She has encouraged me and stood by me even when my decisions weren’t the best and even when she thought we should do things another way.

Thanks to my parents who raised me to be the person I am today.  And thanks to my brother who, despite our differences, reminds me of how much we are really alike.

And thanks to all the friends I have made over the years, from those who I have known since elementary school to those I just met last week.  Whether we remain friends for life or for just a short time I know that there is a reason we met and we can learn from each other.

Happy Thanksgiving!
