Thelma is an awesome and amazing writer. She says that these descriptions are used too often but I don't know how to say it any better. She's funny, thoughtful, caring, interesting, intelligent, loving, and just plain great. These descriptions do not have any particular order. As far as I'm concerned they could all be #1. Also I'm sure there are more great words to describe her.
