Mom...
  
I cant even begin to tell you how amazing you truly are.  I have learned so much from you and count it a true blessing to have you as my mom.  Your love for Jesus shines bright and encourages me daily.  Thank you for all that you do and you have done for me.  Your love support and encouragement have truly meant the world to me.  Tank you for supporting me on this journey and giving me an extra push to fly:)  I couldn't have done this without you.  You are my best friend and I will miss you constantly.  I love you so much and appreciate who you are and what you have done for me.

You are such an amazing dad, friend and man of God.  Thank you for believing in me throughout this whole thing and telling me that I can do it even in times when i felt like i couldn't.  Thank you for always making me laugh when my heart hurt and encouraging me when things seemed to heavy for me to carry... You helped carry them for me.  I love you with all of my heart and I will miss you... TONS...  When i miss you i will just look down at my feet!!

Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart for your encouragement.  My eyes filled with tears the day I got home from Mexico and saw what you had done for me... My eyes filled with tears tonight when I read the card you wrote to me with the dove.  You are an amazing woman and i am thrilled to have you as a part of our Lugo family..  There isn't another woman i would choose to fill your shoes.  I am going to miss you so much while I am gone, but know that I love you and will be thinking of you always!!

I love you Sweetie! You are amazing and you are going to do AMAZING things in So. Africa!

BTW - DO NOT let these cowardly "Anonymous" comments get to you - they don't even know you or can begin to understand all you've gone through in the past two months and why you're doing what you're doing....ABSOLUTELY UNREAL!!!!
