| Introduction | I'm an only child born to the two very best parents in the world. I've had a weight problem since I was eight (the first age at which I joined Weight Watchers). I grew up a relatively happy, fat kid. I fell in love with reading at a young age after my dad cut the cord off our television (on purpose) and I had to find some way to entertain myself. I had an interesting adolescence and was relieved to finally head off to Moody Bible College in Chicago, IL. In 1999, my wonderful father passed away from a sudden heart attack. In 2000, I graduated from Moody with a degree in Communications. Also, in 2000, I married my boyfriend of four years, Brett Soderstrom. In 2002, my mother remarried a wonderful Christian man, Gary, who became a welcome addition to our family. My husband and I currently live in Roscoe, IL. We attend Morning Star Baptist Church in Rockford, Illinois. The light of our lives is our son who was born after nine painful years of infertility. |

For your birthday, your aunt gave you a maple syrup dispenser shaped like a rooster. Please write her a thank-you note:
Dear Aunt, Thank you so much for thinking of me! What a unique and thoughtful gift! I hope to return the favor to you very soon. Love, Your Niece
