I AM....

I am a daughter, of teen parents who instilled the value of education in me because of their own missed opportunities. I am a granddaughter, that sees the wisdom and knowledge in my grandparents strands of glistening grey hair. I am a little sister, who admirers and respects her older brother and makes note of his advice. I am a big sister, remembering that he is watching me and try to set a good example. I am a niece who feels the pride and support in my uncle’s smile. I am a friend, one who will listen and comfort you when you feel no one else will. I am eager to learn, strong, driven, dedicated and compassionate. I am who I am because of the people who mean so much to me. The wishes, lessons, advice, drive, pride and compassion THEY have blessed me with make me who.....I am!
