I love my family very much. Our family is fairly large. I have 3 sisters and 3 brothers plus mom and dad.
A friend asked me once, if I would have liked to have come from a smaller family. The answer was no. My character is really
a summation of each of these individuals. My uncle insist that I am very much my father's son. It is true though. I spent most of my teenage life like everyone other teenager
trying to be everything but. But some how, I am very much affected by his character.
Mom and Dad, I thank you for raising such smart and well grounded kids and passing along your values of family, hard work,
humility, honour and simplicity. My dad worked his entire life for our family as his father did before him. We all appreciate it.
My dad isn't a man of many words. It was the traditional rehearsal dinner for my youngest brother's wedding. Now these are the only words has said to me about the wedding, "We've family now".
To my sister in Vancouver, Hey what's up !!! You too Special K, nice nickname!!! Oh yeah, you too Sam (the dog).
