Elizabeth

For as long as I've known her she has been remarkable...and I have known her as long as her forever.  I have watched her grow through the years into the beautiful young woman she is today....my niece Elizabeth.  I love her for all she is.  I love her for all of the pieces of our family I see in her...and I love her for who she has become and is becoming.  

Elizabeth graduated from Le Moyne college in Syracuse two weeks ago...and now she has a job and will be moving to Buffalo at the end of the month.  This is awesome news!! I am so proud of her....and yet it doesn't surprise me in the least.  At the same time though....I can't believe that she is all 'growed up'.  I wish so many things for her....that she always love what she is doing, that she find her people wherever her travels may take her, and that she live, love and enjoy life for all her days.

I wish Elizabeth a beautiful life!!

"For what it's worth: it's never too late or, in my case, too early to be whoever you want to be.  There's no time limit, stop whenever you want.  You can change or stay the same, there are no rules to this thing.  We
can make the best or worst of it.  I hope you make the best of it.  And I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you never felt before.  I hope you meet people with a different point of view.  I hope you live a life you're proud of.  If you find that you're not.  I hope you have the courage to start all over again."
