Validation

Sometimes it's good to hear someone else point out, all on their own, that the things you've been pondering aren't simply a part of your imagination.

I received an exceptionally kind email the other day and one sentence stood out above the rest, "Lydia has definitely had a personality transplant since going GF – she is so low key, mellow, watchful now. Still cute, but less 'into things'."

It's one of those things where I've sat and wondered to myself if all these changes we've seen in Lydia were merely figments of our intense desire to have things better, or if they are really, truly happening before our eyes.  It's heart warming, in a way I can't explain, to know that someone else sees the change as well.
