My Personal Thank-you

Hortense

Home | Alan | Hortense

Where shall I begin?  As a mother, I would have expected you to be cautious about your only daughter.  Naturally, you are.  Unlike other mothers I have encountered though, you have given me a chance.  You have gotten to know me, and you recognize what your daughter truly means to me.  You are one of my biggest supporters, and for that I owe you the world.  You have given me support when I needed it, and even when I didn't.  In all honesty, you are one of the very few people who have actually made me blush.  Most of the time when I am the recipient of compliments, I argue with the complimenter, trying to bring myself down, thinking that they are just saying what I want to hear.  When you speak, however, I listen.  There is an honesty in your voice and in your eyes that makes me feel like a very important person.  No words can express how happy this makes me.  I have tried several times to repay you, but you always insist that I keep my money, save my energy, etc.  This irritated me at first because I wanted to display my grattitude, but I realized that the best way I could ever repay you is to love Lauren unconditionally and with all of my heart.  This is one debt in which I am more than happy to pay back.  So, thank you once again Horty, and remember if you ever need anything, I'll be around.  I plan on it!
