The most influential person in my life is both my mother and father. In the highs and lows of my family life, I have observed them. Majority of my life I have spent around my family and at home. As a result, I have acquired most of my parents’ strengths and weaknesses. My parents….they are my foundation. Never have I not felt loved, wanted or needed as a daughter. They taught me to have confidence in myself. To reach for the stars and know that if I failed they would always be there to pick me up. They have always been my biggest fans and always encouraged me to try. They gave me humor, passion and a sense of loyalty to family. They are and have always been my cornerstone. They were my base.
My two older sisters…I remember as a little girl watching your every moves with hawk eyes. You have shown me what it takes to be a lady. You have displayed grace and strength under fire. You have taught me that I will never walk this path alone no matter how much we may disagree. I know you’ll always be by my side. You will push me, pull me and nudge to my goals and for that I am grateful.
My daughters, who taught me as much as I taught them. I watched them grow and by watching them and their encouraging words lead me to going back to school. Although we’re in different states now we still learn from each other from a distance.
