Acknowledgments
To Mary Schmidt - Words can’t express my gratitude to you for what you have done for me. You have been a godsend in my life. From helping me through every editing aspect of this book, to more than once teaching me how to edit a book and giving me tools to make me a better author, a huge thank you. Without you, my book would not be the quality that it is today. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Not only did we edit this book together, we became close through the process and I cherish our friendship. I will never be able to repay you for your wonderful graciousness. Thank you, Mary.
