Hi Tiff, thank you so much for taking the time to leave a response. I appreciate your feedback on how my writing came across and it helps me become a more thoughtful writer. I don't think I intended to paint such an unbalanced view of Beth and Alex (it really was just meant to say how great was and it' hard to paint a complete picture in 8 mins) but I think Jeremey who also responded to your comment said a lot of what I had intended for the piece. I did laugh at your last sentence though. I appreciate your sense of humor and your view on it. If you ever feel like sharing more, I'd love to know more about you and your view, especially since they are so different from mine. Feel free to write to me at maeyalily@gmail.com
