~smiles and hugs~
tessa, with so many people telling you how wonderful you are I truely hope that you will start to believe it and have as much confidence in yourself as we all do.
I love reading your posts, they bring a smile to my face, guess because I feel I know you a little but also because I know that every word comes from your enormous heart.
I love this place too and you are right it is a 'home and a family' for many of us, in good and bad times.
~hugs and more hugs~ for your tough time, right now and ~hugs and more hugs~ for the good times that are just waiting to pounce.
love
