    MY VERY SPECIAL FRIEND, DAVID
 
 
 
David... you are such a wonderful and very special person in my life.  You make me laugh, you make me happy, and you are always there to say, I love you.  We have been through a lot together, you and i.  I hope you are always there to pick me up and brush me off when I fall.  Thank you for being in my life, I need you..  I love you, too.
Sean and Justin... You two are my best buds.   We have know each other forever it seems.  We have so many great times together...but I won't write a book.  But one of the best times was when you guys always came to my house and we played "Are you afraid of the Dark".  You two loved scaring me to death.  I miss all those times so much.  I know you call me all the time but since you both moved away it just isn't the same.  I love you guys....

More of my buds...
Mike... we have been in school together since third grade at St. Catharine's.  I will never forget the time you gave the definition for love in class.  Only Michael would give a 5 minute definition out of the Britannica.  But nothing has changed...only now...it's computers.  HEE, HEE.  I honestly don't know where I would be without you.  Since ninth grade you have been my true, true friend.  I tell you everything.  You even have late night hours for all my computer problems... or Moms.  I will never forget our camping trip last year... and smores.  Or when you got locked in the Science Lab this year.... ok, ok... I will stop.  Just remember I could make a fortune... blackmailing you when you take over the computer world and leave Bill Gates in the dust.  Thank you, Mike for everything.  You are in the real sense... my best, best bud.

Cathy and I are both juniors and have been friends for a long time, but  we spent a weekend together this summer in Stubenville, Ohio on retreat.  It was a fantastic weekend.  What an "Awesome God" we met there.  Love ya, Cathy.
 
Christian has been the craziest friend I have had since 9th grade when he bugged me to death.  He got in so much trouble for harrassing me.  He is now one of my best buds.  I never thought I'd see the day that I would say that Christian.  Thanks for all the memories...I think!

SWEET 16 PARTY
On March 6th, I turned 16 and had a party that was a blast...in more ways than one.  I loved having all of my friends around to celebrate one of the big moments in my life.  Mike and the guys will always remember it too.  I won't tell that story here.  But.......

A LITTLE...ABOUT ME
 
Since the age of three I have lived with my grandmother who has raised me as her own.  She has been my real MOM.  I won't go into my life history here but if and when you really get to know me... I will share some of it with you, but only if you ask me.  
 
 
Part of my extended family includes my aunts and uncles whom I love very much.  They have helped me in so many ways.  My Uncles: Chris and Scott and Aunts: Yvonne and April have been there to pick up the pieces where my biological parents dropped the ball.  The best gift they gave me besides a lot of love and patience was their children.  My cousins Patrick, Sean, Aimee, Alexander and Austin are so precious to me... they are my brothers and sisters.  Below are pictures of them.
