To my mom, a profound thank you for teaching me it is okay to be different! For encouraging me to be all that I dreamt of...for showing me how to step outside the box!!! My mom is my biggest fan of anything I do. If I show her artwork - she always loves it! If I say I want to fly - she tells me I can! She is a woman of courage - even though she shudders on the inside - she walks tall and is an inspiration to any that met her!
