| To Our Parents |
| Dear Mom & Dad, God has truly blessed me with two wonderful parents and a very loving brother & sister. As a child, I may not have always shown myself to be so appreciative, but please know that I owe my deepest gratitude to you for shaping me to be the person that I am. Most of all, thank you for your undying love & prayers in support of the one and only love of my life - Mercy! Thanks to you both for offering me the love of a lifetime! Love, Mike |
I may not express everyday how grateful I am to be your daughter -- I'd like to take this special moment to tell you that I'm so blessed and thankful. Our choices may not seem to be so perfect all the time, but one thing I am certain --your choice to bring me out in this world is one of the most perfect gifts. Thanks be to God . I'm grown up now and have found a love so true, this time I'm also certain that I made a perfect choice --for Mike is God's gift to me! Thank you for your love & guidance... Love, Mercy |
