I’m very thankful that God has given me such an amazing group of people to share my life with. My words and work wouldn’t be the same without their input into my life!
John, thank you for the big things (like loving me unconditionally) and the small things (like loading the dishwasher and putting away laundry). You are a gift to me. I love sharing life (and sometimes chores) with you! Cory, Leslie, Nathan and Andrea … you rock. I love that God gave us an extra kid from halfway around the world. How cool is that? Grandma, thank you for sharing our family’s story in many ways. Thank you for your love. Amy Lathrop, thank you for walking through the publishing journey with me. You’re a dear friend and an awesome assistant. Loring Morris, see … I told you I think about you all the time. Thank you for living your life in Uganda and being an example to me of faithful service. Easthaven Baptist Church, especially our small group: Job and Marie Dittmer, Steve and Karlene Waltman, Greg and Jan Griffin, Pat and Shelly Callan, and Joe Evich. You are the best church friends ever! My agent, Janet Kobobel Grant, thank you for listening every time I say, “Janet, I have an idea.” Keith Edwards, thank you for sharing your stories about your parents as settlers, and for the research book “A Gathering of Memories” that brought history to life for me! Beth Adams and Fiona Serpa, thank you for showing me how to make a good story great … and helping me get there! Finally, thank you to my Twitter friends who voted on the title. Glad you liked it!
