As a child I would say that their were many people who cared and nurtured me, but the people who influenced me the most were my mom and dad, then my grandparents, church members, and my daughter. My mom and dad were the greatest, they were involved in my education and always encouraged me to do my best. My mom taught me to be the independent women I am today and my father always had the time to listen to my boring stories I had to tell, which made me feel really good. My grandparents always had the ears to listen and the patients to deal with anything that came their way. My church family taught me to keep God first and I could achieve anything. In my time communities were really close, but I really can't recall anyone that impacted my life. My daughter is a very special someone who no longer with my who is in my heart, but I see her smile and personality in her child.
