THANK YOU

This page is to thank all that have come into my life and touched my heart or enriched my life with their love and/or friendship.  Many times in life I think we forget to say thank you and time passes by us and before we know it, it is too late. So, I want you all to know that you are each very special to me, and I love you all very much.
 

FAMILY:

Although I don't feel I can truly express my feelings for all my hubby has given me in the way of love and friendship, I just want to say that his kind gentle nature has allowed me to be just who I am - no more and no less. For that I will always be thankful.  He never once asked me to change a thing about myself, but instead, he remains patient and understanding of all I do.  I know I continue to surprise him and he continues to stand by me and love me no matter what I do or say.

I don't know what to say about my lil boy except that I love him with all I have, and I wonder each time I look at him what I did to deserve something so precious as his light. No other experience will ever compare with the emotions I felt at his birth. His smile could light the darkest path and warm the coldest heart. From the first minute he was born I realized how pure a love could truly be. I am grateful for his life and his love.

I thank my parents for showing me the way without ever really telling me what to do or making choices for me. I only remember them allowing me to make my own mistakes and learn my own way in life.  My mother showed me how to be strong and not back down when I believed in something.  My father always made me feel like I was his lil princess, and he taught me even if it was hard sometimes to be the better person, that I had to try anyway.  You both always stood behind my choices, supported me, and just wanted to see me happy. I work hard every day to raise my child just as I was raised because what I remember most about growing up was that I always felt loved. Thanks for instilling in me the necessity to always be the best at all I did - to never be afraid to reach for the stars.

I want to thank my sissy first of all for being someone I could look up to and for always being there for her lil bratty sister.  I appreciate all your help and work on this page.

I have to thank my older brother for always giving me a hard time growing up so that I can now have a backbone.  I never thought anything good could come outta all that razzing you gave me, but I look back now and think it has a big part to do with who I am now.  And thanks for finally growing outta that stage by the way!

I thank my younger brother for being so much like me personality wise, for laughing at the same things I laugh at, and for understanding why I am laughing.  You are too much bro; I thoroughly enjoy our rare time together.

I thank my aunty for being like a second mommy to me in my raising.  You continue to always be there for me.  I learned so much from you growing up, and still even now you teach me whether you know it or not.

Too all my other family: I love you all very much.  Thanks for being there when I needed you and for just being a great family to be raised in.
 

FRIENDS:
 

Gina, you have been there for me so many times.  We have laughed together, cried together, stood by one another as we were married, been through childbirth, and still continue to have a thriving friendship like no other I have had before or shall ever have again.  We have been best friends for over ten years and you have never once judged me for any choice I made or failed to be supportive of a decision I made good or bad.  I love you so much for all you have done and shown me.  Thank you for teaching me that just because people were different than I am, it didn't mean they deserved to be treated differently.

Jennifer, in the two years I have known you, I have learned a lot about friendship.  You showed me that being a real friend means standing beside someone even if you don't agree with them rather than judging them.  Thanks for letting me be as crazy as I am and just always laughing right along with me.

I want to say thank you to my online friends also because you are all a wonderful group of people. Though we may come from various places all over the world, this is the one place we can all come together and share our experiences, dreams, hopes, fears, and our love for each other and of life. I have dedicated a special page to my online friends and family called "chat" where I have gone into more detail about you all.
