New Year's Resolution

I'm starting early. It has become abundantly clear to me this year that it is essential for our family to have a support network that accepts us for who we are. I have a life long issue with trying to please people that is just plain sad. I almost fall off a text book page and the story is so boring and I'm tired of it. I'm going to try extra hard to be true to myself and to encourage the same from my kids. Maybe it's the 40th birthday thing that will arrive next August, I don't know. But I feel like I'm ready for a new path. If you love us as we are, warts and all, then you are welcome in our lives. We could really use some good, true friends. If not, farewell.
