Yep, its true.  I have been gracing the world with my Mavliness for 30 years

I wish to thank all of you who’ve made my life possible–whether in grueling labor (and it was people, I was breach!  Guess I always had to do things a little different right from the start), or in teaching ABC’s, or in imparting wit and wisdom, or laughing at the moments of joy, or sitting silent in the moments of pain, or holding the bike while I got my balance, or driving me to rehearsal, or showing me how to twist the pretzle dough just right, or providing a place of refuge, or challenging my faith, or affirming my strengths, or-with love and gentleness-helping me through my weaknesses, or dancing with me, or swooning along with me, or cheering me onward, or encouraging me to stop and rest, or conspiring with me, or reminding me of reason, or OverTheRhining with me–each of you in my life have all contributed to who I am today and who I will be in the years to come.
