Thank you to everyone who made this weekend bearable for me, including strangers at the Mini dealership, friends with flowers and hugs, and especially Phil. I know I've said it a hundred times since Saturday morning, but thank you. Thank you for understanding my tears and for cheering me with early Christmas presents and for driving me all over creation just so I wouldn't have to be home. And for a million other things you've done.
I'm really so lucky to be surrounded by such wonderful people. You should all know that I won't ever take that for granted. As A-Lo so eloquently put it, I have the best friends in the world.
