My Mom's Birthday........Big "5-3"

To my mother,

I love you, first and foremost let me say that. I know that as your son you have done the best you can in raising me and instilling all of your values, morals, and beliefs within me. I left home knowing that I was going to face the world with all that I'd learned from you, as well as all the knuckleheads in our family. I know I have had my moments of being bad, and stubborn, and uncooperative, but hey I got those traits from you and Daddy (it's true and ya know it), but no matter what I will always be your "Rhysee-Cup", as you're the only one who's allowed to call me that nickname.

I remember so much about my childhood that you made possible: all the birthdays, halloweens, christmases, parties, sleepovers, etc.....that you allowed me to take part in; all of the times when I wanted something and even though you didn't have it, you still found a way. Those are the times I will always remember, and while we're not the richest, you made it seem as though we were because you always reminded me, Warren, and Jon to be thankful for what we had, and not what we wanted or didn't have.

This won't be long, but even though it isn't, it is filled with all my love for my mom----Kathy LaVonne Cunningham.

I LOVE YOU MOMMY!!!!
