Cricket and I have practiced for almost four years: Find the stairs. Find the counter. I knew they would work for this moment as we walked to the podium to accept our award as
Wasatch Woman of the Year! She nailed it! I walked confidently to the podium to thank all those who had been a part of this journey. Clapping, even a standing ovation I am told for this moment. It is a moment I will look back on and treasure.
I feel so very grateful. Nineteen people (we had two tables of 10), that I LOVE were there. I couldn't contain the joy I felt as these people were sharing and getting to know each other. I was surrounded by people that were there to love and support me. Amazing. I am not sure how to even begin to thank them and each of you that have supported me in this journey. Thank you.
Steve - who has been by my side - believing and cheering me on for 26 plus years. Love him. What a special treat to have Natalie and Kendall here for this special ocassion. They both made great effort to come and I love them SO much.
My brothers - love them.
My parents - two of my biggest fans in all I do.
If you don't mind, a few more pictures to follow and the video clip. In the meantime, we are loving a day with our daughter before she flies home later this afternoon.
