Chicago!

What a beautiful city! I would love to come back here for a vacation one day with Jason and Lyra. The weather is AWESOME!
My conference is going good and I am learning so much stuff. I have be challenged to advance to Director by Dec 1st, and everyone knows how I am when it comes to challenges. I am so ready to get back home to start putting my new techniques to work. My goal is to get a new recruit by the end of July. Anyone interested! If you don't come to me I WILL find you :)
This trip has been so worth the $$$ and I have met LOTS of new friends and extended Pampered Chef "family". But it has also been really hard too. I miss Jason and Lyra so much it's keeping me from sleeping peacefully at night. In all of my spare time I am thinking of what they are doing and wishing I was there with them. I saw the pictures Ricci posted on her website and almost lost it. Lyra looked so cute and I am sad that I am missing all of this time with her. I will never get these 5 days back, so that's the other reason and I going to make this conference worth it. I have to make it worth being away from my family. That's the motivation I needed to get a new jump start :)
I also wish I was home to be with my daddy. Or at least to help my mom out. Daddy I am praying for you and hope you get feeling better soon. Take it easy and I will be out there sometime this weekend. If you need a butt message, just say the words.
Well, I have to get going.....

Love everyone and if you see my precious little girl PLEASE give her hugs and kisses from me. If you want to do the same to Jason feel free too :)
