INSPIRATION.
Mom, at one point in time, you were my worst enemy...as I was for you. We never saw eye to eye, never understood one another...there were times where we couldnt be alone in a room for 2 minutes, without yelling or conjuring up an arguement. So after all of that, I just want to say, Thank You. Thank You for saying "NO", Thank You for punishing me, Thank You...for you have contributed in helping me be who I am today. For Today, and till Forever, YOU are my best friend, and even though, Ive let you down, made you wonder about my well being...you never gave up on me, and you Never stopped loving me. I could of commited crime after crime, and still, you would call me, your daughter...and you dont understand how Thankful I am.They say, for a daughter, your mother is your best friend, and I think we do a great job in supporting that statement. Now, looking back, I know at times, you said things you didnt mean, and now I can understand why...even though it took me this long to figure it out. You gave me credit where credit was due, You always said you loved me, even though we were on un-easy terms. You always told me to "be careful", even if I didnt care...and most of all...You never let a day go by without a prayer. A prayer for your daughter, along with your sons, and Im about 100% certain I can speak for them on this one...but Prayer is the best thing you could have ever done for us.Youve never singled us out, and you loved us all equally...and we couldnt be more grateful. Now, as Im still growing up...I have a blessed person by my side, someone who has taken your role in a way, to help guide me, protect me, and lead me on the right path in life. Youve taken not only me, but Pharaoh and I, under your wing, and provided us with love and support that we thought only existed in dreams. Before, you and I always ended the day...Now, its Him and I. We pray, Laugh, Cry...together, as one...and theres nothing more beautiful, than the things I witness with him, as my soul mate. Thank You for all youve done...for youll never know, how much "I"...WE, appreciate it. I love you, and incase I dont tell you enough, which I doubt, im taking this time to vow to you, my love for life. ♥.
i love you darlin. im keeping you forever, and for always!♥.
youve been there for me, in every way possible. picked me up when i needed you. held me when i was scared, and loved me when i felt down. i cant thank you enough for all that youve done for me, life wouldnt be the same without you. youve come a long way, and we've shared something so special, so rare, and so real. i love you, and thats a promise.♥.

And LAST, but certainly NOT least...Pharaoh Yuzon. You, my friend, have come a long way. I knew your past, I knew what you were all about, but I still gave you a shot...and I must add, that this experience I have witnessed with you, was the best sacraficial thing, I have ever done. At the beginning, it was just you and I. Seemed like us against the world...but, we held on...and GOD had forgiven us, and moved the hearts of our families. I admit, I misjudged you...and you totally proved me wrong, along with my family as well. Now, my mother loves you as if you were her own...shoot, we basically live at her house...ha. But honey, remember...people love you. I love you. You are one person, who can always make me smile. One person I can count on, and one person I know...who would never let me down. Im sorry for the times I hold your past against you. Everyone has the power and the strength to change, and you are a walking testimony. Im sorry for all the times you cry, for I promise I will always be by your side, holding you, and letting you know everything will be alright...In our relationship...GOD comes first, and nothing makes me more happy than to see you pray at night. There are times im half sleeping, and I see you out of the corner of my eye, kneeling at the bed side, praying to the man up above. My heart melts...especially knowing how far you have come. Youre a man of GOD now, and Im so proud of you. Thank you for reassuring my family...about the love you have for me. Im sure you know, we're a VERY in DEPTH family...and to us FAMILY comes first...well, after GOD that is, and I want you to know how much I appreciate the fact that you accept that. I must admit, I was hesitant in the beginning, but you proved me wrong just like you said you would...Everyone needs a second chance, and Im so proud to say youre mine. God lead me to you, and God is continuing to work his wonders in our hearts...from the day you told me to close my eyes, to the end of forever....I will love you...and that my dear, is my prayer and vow.
