Kate Eschelbach, thank you for taking such great care of us.

To my remarkable daughters, Emerson and Harper: I am so glad that you are people who feel so much. Know that you sharing with me so many of your feelings—the good and the bad and the terrifying and the hopeful and the loving and the angry and the wise—will forever be the greatest gift I receive.

And to my husband, Tony, thank you for always being there for me—accepting and patient and understanding—to share my feelings with. Good news, bad news for you: there are so many more where those came from.
