Aven honey . . . . you are going to be so confused if you ever do make it home. You may have the only mom that loves Westerns and Kung Fu movies and who puts loyalty before the frivolity of “playing nice” just because it looks good, regardless of how it feels. It is with that in mind that I dedicate the following video from one of my favorite movies of all time. I am a big Billy the Kid fan. He didn’t always do things “law way”, but his heart was always in the right place . . . and he never forgot who his friends were that stood by him. So . . . . this video is dedicated to my Pals. The ones who have been there for 5 years and watched my heart bleed as I lost 3 children. The ones that have been there for the last 1.5 years watching my struggle to get to you. The ones that have never let me down. The ones that always gave me the benefit of the doubt. The ones that held me up when I thought I just couldn’t take it anymore. The ones who stepped up to the plate because I needed them; not because they needed me. You all know who you are. A real Pal always does. If you think I am talking about you, then I probably am. I hope that someday Aven gets to meet all her Aunties and Uncles that are so beloved by her mommy and daddy. Merci Beaucoup . . . please to enjoy . . . .
