I just have to share: My L just emailed me this: Ok, I don't think she has high expectations of me generally speaking.
I just had to praise you again for your fine testimony at today's hearing. I have to confess I expected you would become confused; intimidated; ramble a bit; and answer questions you weren't asked. Instead, you showed you were thoroughly prepared; focused; ready to demonstrate your love and concern for your children; and unafraid of anyone at the table. In short, I think you were awesome!
I'll talk to you later, but just had to e-mail and tell you how proud of you I was today!
