Thank God- that I have been able to succeed in most of my goals. Despite the things that I went through in life, I thank Adversity for being in my life because it has made me prepare for future challenges.

Mandi is the one person that I hope is always there for me, because your sister is always going to be there to pick you up when you have fallen. I admire my mother, not because she is my mom but because she is the only person I know that will be completely honest with me. I have had many significant events happen to me in my life but only two have completely affected me as I come of age, One of those significant event that has helped shape who I am not only today but for the future of myself, happened in October of 2011 when I moved from Kansas to Menard, Texas in the middle of my seventh grade year just a couple days after my first nephew Greyson was born, the big move from Kansas to Texas had changed everything for me.

I love them to death and I know the strengths and knowledge they gave me will forever be in
Half the Woman By: Tori Clark She was a mother, a sister, an aunt, a hard worker, and my great-grandmother, but most of all, she was and still is the biggest influence in how I live my life. She has shaped my life in many ways; she taught me to be nice to everyone, appreciate what you have and never be selfish because you won’t always be here in this world.
