From the mind of the whipper snap.

I feel like I have spent a lot of time talking about this lately to different people, but it is something I cannot help, but think about. It is about my mom. For those of you that know my mom - You know she is slightly crazy, but she is one of the most kind-hearted people that I know.

After all, one of the best things is to love and be loved and I have that in my life. I also have a roof over my head and food in my belly. Not to mention the luxuries of television, computers, and Internet
