Liberty's review went even better then she could have imagined. Her superiors were very impressed by her work, she got the promotion! As a sign of their gratitude Liberty also got the rest of the day off. How nice of them, and since her performance review was done first thing in the morning it essentially gave her the day off. Needless to say it was a very happy and very grateful Liberty that came through the door.

Matteo: You're home early!?! Judging by the look on your face I take it the went well?

Matteo: Oh my god Lib! That is fantastic! I knew you'd get it, I just knew it!

Matteo: You deserved that promotion. I watch you working your butt off doing research every evening. It's so much fun watching somebody do something they love and having fun while they do it.

Matteo: I am SO proud of you! I am so glad you came into my life. You have been so inspirational, so supportive, kind, caring, and loving. I wouldn't be where I am right now if not for you. For all that you've given me you deserve all the best the world has to give.

Liberty: I feel the same about you my dear Matteo. I couldn't do what I do now without knowing I have you in my corner. The responsibility is enormous and it can be a heavy burden, but with you behind me that burden is much lighter. It means the world to me that you're always there for me. You always find the time to just listen while I relieve myself of some of the weight of the world that I feel. You give me so much strength to take on the world.

Liberty: You! Deserve a special thank you and I know how to say thank you in a memorable way.
Matteo: I do love the way you say thank you. You have a wonderful way of making me feel...welcomed

Liberty's day got off to a familiar start, in spite of her functioning on just 3 hours of sleep. Matteo prepared a stack of pancakes for his sweet Lib. They were delicious as always.

With breakfast behind her it's time to face her superiors at work. Liberty hopes they see things her way, that she's done an outstanding job and she's earned a stellar review and a promotion. Matteo gave her a send off it appears.
