1. Mother - My mother was very young we she gave birth to be; I think she was around the age of 19 or 20. As I can remember my mother was a great provider for my sister and me. She was very strict when it came down to education, because her favorite quote was, "Nothing in life is free." Today I live by her quote; if I don't earn it I don't want no one to give it to me.
2. Daddy - My daddy was very gentle, loving, and understanding. He always said that I would be something GREAT one day. Growing up my daddy was always someone that I could turn to when I was feeling down, sad, or going through the stages of liking boys. He would tell me that things will be okay when I thought that I had failed in life.
3. Madear - Madear is my grandmother. As I remember back when my grandmother was living she would tell me to watch her do things so that I would make my future husband proud. She taught me how to be the woman that I am today. I learned to cook, sew, and be a loving wife and mother to my family.
4. Sister - My baby sister was a person that I can say nurtured me. Actually we nurtured each other; although she was a year younger than me, we grow up making sure that we were there for each other. The love my sister and I shared helped me today to love for others.
5. Teacher - My first grade teacher Mrs. Bigger is another person that has a huge impact on my life today. Mrs. Bigger reminds me of my mother a lot. She would give me assignments to do over and over until I did what she knew that I could do. Mrs. Bigger was not the type that would give up on her students; although I struggled with ADHD she still did not cripple my learning. She taught me to keep trying no matter how long it takes, and to work harder than the other students and I could achieve just as much as the rest.
