She Takes My Hand & Leads Me Along Paths I Would Have Never Dared to Explore Alone...

So here I am wallowing as this day mocks me with the strength of one of Chuck Norris’ round house kicks to the face. Yet telling the world how much Valentine’s Day suck only suppresses how much I truly love this day. Not because of all the crap people buy and how store fronts test you and your stomach with the insane amount of red and pink, because essentially if you care for someone, genuinely care for someone, they will know every single day...But because of how much I miss how great these days can be…

This one may not be a Grilled Salmon Fettuccini Alfredo with a side of lovin’ kinda day, but it’s one I’ll probably remember for a very long time, and smile at because of how lucky I am, how lucky I am to be me. As emotional as I can be, as emotional as I am these days…this is only the second time I've cried…cried these tears of joy. Pink Kitchen Aid aside, this is quite possibly one of the greatest things anyone has ever done for me. I don't know where I'd be without you all...and frankly I would never ever want to find out…my family, my friends, you guys are my life.

Connie, my greatest little sister, my bestest friend…first it’s the cake baking, and now this…you don’t know how much this means to me…Thank you for everything, for always being there, supporting me, giving me strength, giving me hope and for always making the rough patches in life go by a little bit easier. And because of you, I smile...

Ray, Nyima, Connie, Shawn, Cindy, Sara and Andrea, you guys are my safety nets and I thank you for allowing me to live my life free of walls, free of harnesses, free of strings. I thank you for always encouraging me and giving me the confidence to have faith, to be able let go whenever I please, and allowing me to fall freely knowing that someone will always be there to catch me. The flowers, the cards are absolutely beautiful, and I can’t believe you guys got Ray to draw :)…Con baking and Ray drawing…how much more can I milk outta this :)…Thank you. You guys mean the world to me and it is because of your love and support that makes me who I am today…

I love you guys with all of me, with all my heart…Thank you all for being so wonderful, so unbelievablly great…


They say...if we make these faces long enuff, they'll stay that way forever :)
Why do we keep incriminating ourselves?...we're so retarded :P
