Special thanks to my wife who made my life so easy...all I had to do was workout! She took care of our daughter...had food prepared for me....was at my beckon call....recorded everything...cheered me on....and did so much more.....she made me stay focused on track....without her it would have not been as easy for me. Thank you so much!!!! I love you and appreciate you more then you will ever know. Thank you and she did it the whole time with a SMILE on her face!!!!
