Thanks to each of you, and I hope you know who you are, for helping me become the person that I am today. I have been very blessed with friendships (old and new) and new accomplishments/ successes. I do not take any of that or those people for granted. I know that it is through their friendships, support and some amazing teachers and the God given talent that I am where I am today. I know that God gave me the talent, friendships gave me encouragement, and my family gave me everything I ever needed and more. So with each award I receive I try to stay humble and true to myself and family because I know that none of this would be possible without their support. Sometimes I take you and all that you have done for me for granted; please accept my humble apologies. I try to make it known that without you I wouldn't be who I am today.
However I know that there is one person to whom I wish I could share my blessings and successes with... Dad. It is so funny the minute I won my teaching award he was the first person that I wanted to call and then it hit me, like a huge hit in my stomach, that I can't call him. Saturday the 15th will mark the 4th anniversary of his death. I pray that I made him proud! I know he shares the joy with me in spirit but I wish so badly that he was here to share. He always knew that I would be an art teacher, way before I did, and told me that I would be a good one. But I continued to shrug him off for years. Now that I am an art teacher I pray that I made him proud.
Enough of this, it has made me cry.
anyway, thanks to all of you who helped me along the way.
