P-Dub is my hero. I love my pastor but P-dub seems like really tight.
Oh yea, wanted to give you props. You always said “leave each day as if it were on purpose” and that’s really effected (or is it affected) me whether or not you know it or not.
I could write a lot more, you’ve helped me a lot this year, but I’ll just say good post and stay encouraged.

I would like the record to show. Erin did not completely embrace her postion as an aunt to Frankie until she got back from Phoneix and found out how well behaved Frankie was compared to other dogs.
