Happy Adoption Day to Me!

I have been in my family 24 years today.. I've had parents who have given me their everything.  A father who played silly games with me every Saturday, and taught me honesty and respect. A mother who always lotioned up my ashy indian skin, and was a great example of charity. I've also had three older brothers who relentlessly teased me with loogie yo-yos, wedgies, and rediculous stories.. Austin who taught me spontanaity and good works. Ed who taught me confidence and individual worth. Tony who taught me commitmemt and faith.  So much of who I am is because this family adopted me.. also known as, loved and accepted me. :)
