Day 4

Picture of your parents

 Sorry it is a kind of far away picture. But this is a picture of my mom and dad and Becca at the Route 66 pull off at the Petrified Forest National Park.

I am so very thankful for the great parents I have. For my dad who taught me how to drive a tractor and how to use a chain saw. For the many adventures we had in the mountains. For being willing to let me tag along when he went and tilled someones garden. I am so thankful for the many things he taught me and for letting me work beside him. I was a daddy's girl growing up and I am so thankful that he let me tag along on so many adventures. He taught me to love the outdoors and to this day I still enjoy cutting wood.Thanks dad for all the trips to the desert and for the many things you showed and taught us down there. Thanks for everything dad I love you

For a mother who is beyond amazing who somehow was able to make it to all of my choir and band concerts. Who took time to come with me to my honor choir stuff. We had so much fun. A wonderful mother who has been there for all my surgeries and who took care of me when I was unable to walk. My little mother even carried me to the bathroom when I had cast on my feet that went to my knees. For the many hours of physical therapy we had to go to. She has always been there for me and still is. I am so thankful that she was able to be here in AZ when Becca was born I don't know what we would have done without her. Michael was starting a new job and I had to be in the hospital for 4 days. My mom stayed there with me and helped me walk to the bathroom and she even started and stopped my IV's. She would be a great nurse. She took care of Becca when I was unable to move because of the blood transfusions. For the many times that she has come down to AZ to watch Becca and spend time with us. I loved all our shopping trips we had and just the time we had in the car together as we were going to the different doctors. I Love you mom and I am so thankful for you. I couldn't have done so many things without you there. Thanks for always supporting me and encouraging me. 

I love you mom and dad thanks for everything you gave your million dollar child :)
