Close your eyes and wish for the one thing.

And when you do,near your heart you'll find it...Always there.

A treasure that is dear, but not so rare.

In truth, no gift can bring more happiness.

Held and gaurded in the enlightened clouds..Where all your dreams flow through.

And so this day... I give my love to you.

Character can not be developed in ease and quiet.

Only thru experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, vision cleared, ambition inspired, and success achieved.

To My Sir Richard...Remember to find pride and happiness in all you do.

Success is not measured by money or being genius...It is finding exellence in what you do well and enjoy.

I have great faith you will achieve all you set out to do...With the exellence you possess.

I am proud of your efforts amd achievements.

It has been an honor to be given the gift of another son.

May angels always walk with you ^i^

~Love Always, Mom~
