I have not told yall....

I found a small part-time job with an attorney.  One of the other girls told me that she might be quitting soon, so if I wanted more hours.  They would be coming.  I do this part-time job is not going to do for the summer.  I need to make some money for the fall.  DJ will be starting school, and I will need to start paying for the latchkey project that is an afterschool daycare but at the school.  Nice.....

But today at work it was slow, so I could read which is nice when I need to do homework.  Well, I was messing with the program on the computer and decided to write my letter to Brenda Lee.  I wanted to write her a letter, but when Katy did her thing.  I felt like she took that from me.  My friend, Susan told me that I should still write my letter.  Brenda Lee would cherish it, Susan still has her letter from her mother, so I did, and I want to share it with yall......

To accomplish
great things,
we must
not only act,
but also dream;
not only plan,
but also believe.

I read this the other day and thought of you.  I know you have been dreaming of this day; graduating.  I have learn that time does go on and it never looks back.  I would like you to keep dreaming, but most of all, I want you to believe that you are special.  You are special to me and your family.  we will always be here for you; any time: day or night, today or tomorrrow, this year or in 10 years.

I am so proud of you.  I had many hopes and dreams of my own for you, but you have astonish my expectation of you.  Yoy have accomplish so much in just this part of your life.  I know that you will achieve so much more.  Put your mind into anything, and it will come.

I will always love you.
Your mother,
Brenda
