My life would be absolutely nothing without these precious people..
my daddy
I could write pages and pages describing all of the reasons that I love my dad, but they would all sum up to the simple fact that he is my hero. He's been a single dad for a little over 8 years now, and he's done a beyond amazing job, always making sure that Hunter and I have had the best life possible. He is selfless, caring, understanding, hardworking, and an overall wonderful man that I am so, so proud to call my dad. And did I mention how handsome he is?! ;) I love you daddy, more than anything.
my big brother
We may have fought for countless years prior to ages 15/18, he may have thrown me off the back of a four-wheeler once, and he may have told me that I couldn't go to my freshman/his senior prom because "that wouldn't be cool"...but he's still my big brother and always will be. He is extremely overprotective, but I wouldn't have it any other way. He's such a smart, determined, personable, loving, and super handsome guy, and I'm sure that Kait will agree with me on that one ;). I love you, "Hunt-Hunt".
my best friend
Jordan and I have been "attached-at-the-hip" for almost 7 years now. She moved to Pinetops when she was in the 5th grade, and by the time 6th grade rolled around, we were spending every weekend together. She and I have made it through so much together, and we'll make it through so much more. She makes me a better person and I love her more every day because of it. She is loyal, brilliant, wise beyond her years, compassionate, and ambitious, and she makes me so proud to know her. I love you, Jo.
my aunt
My aunt Terry has been one of my strongest confidants throughout my entire life. She started out painting my toenails and straightening my extremely curly hair, and it eventually progressed to letting me borrow her clothes and staying up until midnight talking about boy problems. Being so close to her makes me feel so much closer to my mom, and I know that she is the reason why we do have such a close relationship, and it's one that I will always cherish. I love you, Aunt Terry.
and last, but certainly not least..
my mom
Even though she's not here anymore, I know that she's still the reason I've become who I am. She was the most intelligent, beautiful, caring, strongest, and overall best person I've ever known and ever will know. I often struggle with the permanence of her not being here anymore, and I find myself asking God "why me?" more often than not. But it's those times when I have to remind myself that this was all a part of His grand plan, and that I have to keep my faith in Him and He will see me through. I love you, mama, and I miss you more than ever.
"For I know the plans I have for you", declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
Jeremiah 29:11 NIV
