thank you trevi

2 months ago I made a wish in rome at the trevi fountain.

the wish was

for someone to come into my life and help me open my heart up again.

---

think it's okay for me to share that with people now

(mary wished for our luggage back, thank goodness one of us did)

he makes me smile.

a lot (: 

i am so..

august has by far been the best month of 2011.

26 years.

h a p p y  a n n i v e r s a r y--
to my parents,
who taught me how to love

august, 1985

thank you for all that you've sacrificed in your life 

to make ours better. thank you for being so loving, so affectionate, 

and consistent throughout our entire lives. as i grow older, 

i only find more reasons to be thankful, 

and there's still so much i have yet to learn.

i'm always grateful that God gave me parents like you.

you are the inspirations in my life, and i will always love you.

sincerely, 

your oldest daughter
