Dedication

I have many people to thank for helping me on my way through this life, but there is one who has made all the difference: Kristen. This journey is perfect because I share it with you. Also, I can't imagine my life without my four loves by my side: Hannah, Kira, Joseph, and Davis. This book would have been impossible without your support, your willingness to help, and your positive energy. Come to think of it, my whole life would be impossible without you!
