		<description>Hey Alex, I&#039;m in a similar situation myself and currently seeking God for the way forward.  Good job for listening to His prompting.  I know how hard it can be.  I hope the people you once worked alongside respect your decision.

		<description>Chris, yer a true friend &amp; I look forward to hanging with you on the &#039;outside&#039;.

Conner, I&#039;ve loved getting to watch you and your family via blogging - and yes, hopefully I&#039;ll get back into Office blogging. Hopefully if all goes well, we can stop by and say HI!

Jan, thanks for the kind words &amp; encouragement - you&#039;ll see more of the story as the weeks &amp; months go by.

Chris, I don&#039;t know you very well either, but have been checkin yer blog. Thanks for the comment &amp; I look forward to getting to know you better.

Brent, I know this was a shocker - I think that&#039;s a good thing (more on that later). We&#039;ve really enjoyed getting to know you and Tam better over the past year - hopefully we can meet in person soon. Thanks for your prayers &amp; support.

Eric, you&#039;ve been such a good friend &amp; co-worker. I can&#039;t tell you how much we respect you and your family and are excited to see you flourish in your current role at Chorus. I envision a long and lasting friendship!

Andy, good to see you here brother! I&#039;ve loved seeing you around playing at Life over the past couple months. Thanks for the prayers!

Kathy, we love you guys! We&#039;ll really miss you &amp; don and the kids - especially Jon, who by the way is an AMAZING example of God&#039;s love &amp; grace. I have so much respect and love for that guy. Jon, if you&#039;re reading - keep on in your faith and service to God - you&#039;re in your sweet spot!

Melissa, we love you guys so much too and will be on the edge of our seats waiting for those girls to come home - they will be so blessed to call you mom!

Billy, Billy, Billy - I was hoping for a cajones comment! Love you man and thanks for the support. I had a good time watching your journey - and continue to watch in anticipation.

Jeff - one word: PIZZA!

Vince wins the &#039;best comment award&#039;. Love you guys.</description>
