From CH:
To Jenny: Thank you for parting with me for the many long hours I spent sitting on the couch in the red room while you were “Mommy.” Your selflessness and faithfulness are the stuff of legend. You’ve always believed in my writing, even more than I have, and I can’t imagine walking this path without you. Thank you for being my number one supporter, friend, confidant, fan, and even critic. I’m a better man because of you. i2i2
To Evangeline, Luik, Judah and Levi: thank you for parting with your Daddy so I could write this story. As such, you’ve invested into thousands of readers who are just as much a part of your legacy as they are mine. May you reach exponentially more souls for Jesus in your lifetimes than I ever could have in mine. Your sacrifice is their blessing, and God does not blink at that.
To the people whose enthusasim and encouragement continue to inpsire me: Kirk Gilchrist, Chris Mooney, La Famille Sureau, Shane Marolf, Matt Dumont, Joseph Gilchrist, and Postmaster Jill.
And lastly, to my dear friend, Sir Wayne Thomas Batson. This final installmenet will always be a reminder to me of your patience and grace. Without your faithful plodding and continual encouragement, I’m certain this book would not be. I’m honored to call you friend, and beyond grateful to the Lord for knitting us together when He did. Here’s to flatulent barrister Gnomes everywhere!
