Wa Alaykum Assalam brother Jordan,
Ma sha Allah, I am very happy to hear you have accepted Islam! All praise is for Allaah the Most Exalted for blessing you with guidance. :)
I remember the thread you made here:

Remember to take things step by step, and be prepared to face more challenges. Let us know if we can be of any help In sha Allah.
May Allaah :swt: increase you in knowledge and understanding of the deen and keep you steadfast, may He :swt: guide your family and ease all of your difficulties, Aameen.
