I wasn't your blood child but you were the only true mother that I knew, and because of YOU, children like me had a fighting chance when our own kind gave us up. I believe God had a plan and you were it. Words are not enough to express how much you raised me and how very much I miss you, but You will live on through my daugher and your words of wisdom that I pass to her. Not a day goes by that I don't think of you and wish I had more time... Thank you for my life!!!
