Who are you fortunate to have in your life? What person or people have done things for you utterly above and beyond the call of friendship or family bonds? Who are you most grateful to (and for) at this stage of your life?

For me, it's definitely my family and friends. My mom, especially at the moment. I know she keeps hoping that sooner or later I'll get myself all settled into adulthood. :)

Steve, my husband. I thank the powers that be for him every day. He taught me to love myself for who I am.

Well, and our dogs. I'm really far too fond of those guys!

People who are kind and genious (it's not often you see the two together). Like Sara_arenson@hotmail.com (sorry, hope she doesn't mind me posting).
