Next to my immediate family, no one was more excited about my pregnancy than Bill. He kept tabs on my growing belly and kept calculating where his daughter Molly would be in comparison given she was only a few weeks behind me. He would tell with great enthusiasm stories of how great it was to be a parent and had me so excited by the end I truly was ready to burst!! Since my little one has been born he has listened with such enthusiasm to every coo, crawl, climb, walk and talk story I have had to tell. I have seen him beam himself as he tells as a very proud Grandfather of all the milestones his grandchild has made. He has preached to me how to embrace everday I have with my children and just love on them and live in each of the little moments they have.

Bill I hope I can heed all of your advice and at the time of my retirement look back and see a balance of family, career and living life. I love your passion and I love you.
