I Thanks God:
Marisol, Gordi, Axel, Jesse, Anel, Sergio, Ironel: I Thank God for the Gift of My Sister, Brothers & Nephews. I think of you all and my heart sings...
Not just because of your smile, Not just because of your happy laughter, Not just because of the way I feel after I've talked to you. It's all of these things and more.
My heart sings with the knowledge that God has given me a gift... The gift of you, for we didn't choose each other.
We were born into the same family, and we became friends, Not just sister, nephews & brothers, but friends. We feel each other's pain, and we share each other's joy. I thank God for giving me the gift of you all...
My Sister Marisol: Thanks for giving me Jesse:
My Sister Is... someone who helps me find my smile. Who accepts me for what I am, who lets me know that my efforts really are worthwhile, and that my accomplishments are worthy ones.
She lets me know that she will catch me if I fall. She's so much more wonderful than she will admit to being. She watches out for me and helps me through it all...
My Sister Is... someone I'm very proud to be related to. Having her as such a special part of my family has given me memories that I wouldn't trade for anything and hopes that I'll have for as long as I live.
Even if there are times when the two of us are far away from each other, our thoughts will make sure we stay together.
My Sister Is... a person who is great to have around. She's someone who laughs at my jokes (maybe because she has the same warped sense of humor!) and she understands the times when I need a shoulder to cry on. She is there for me in the exact same way that I will always be there for her. Our friendship will always remain, and our love will never depart.
My Sister... deserves to know that even though I don't always get a chance to show it, she is absolutely essential to the happiness... that lives within my heart.
My feelings for you wander back through sunny days when it felt like we used to have the whole world to ourselves. We shared so much, and we cared more than our hearts could begin to realize.
At the time, there was so much joy I took for granted and so many things I didn't even stop to think of. But I began to learn how important you were to my happiness, and that is what sisters are all about... love.
As we grew, and time passed by, we had to begin to choose the paths our lives would take. It wasn't easy to know which way to go and what things to do, but I was reassured because of the treasure I held in my heart: By being my sister, you gave me the quiet comfort of knowing I could always turn to you. That's what sisters are all about... sweetness and support to see you through.
All through our years, you have been a source of so many smiles and so much inspiration for me. There has never been a time when the miles that came between us have not been bridged by the closeness of our hearts. I want to thank you for giving me the special kind of feelings that only sisters like you and I could comprehend. That's what sisters are all about... being the very best of friends.
Axel & Ironell: Thank you for giving me Anel. Angel: Thank you for giving me Sergio:
Brothers, You Are the Best:
We had great times together but there are years lost behind us, full of words we never spoke, and now we have our separate lives and less time to share together. But in my heart I have always felt the love we have, and neither distance, nor time can take away the bond we forged as children...
Growing up, we played and fought, talked and laughed. Beyond the fun and games, beyond the battles we waged, we found in each other unending support and a lifelong friend.
Through thick and thin, and difficult times, we emerged together as one, protecting each other from the world. I know that if either of us ever need anything, we can count on the other to give our all and help in every way possible. Perhaps words are not always necessary in our relationship, because we all know what's there.
But today I want to take the time to remind you how much I really care and thank you for all that you have been to me. I could never ask for, want, or need better brothers, because I have the best in you all. I love you!
From My Sister:
Janice: Sabe Dios que has llenado mi alma de bendicion. Esas palabras quedaran grabadas en mi para siempre. Las tendre conmigo para leerlas cada vez, porque mi ser se llenara de emocion y alegria siempre que las lea.
Agradezco a Dios la dicha de poder amarte como te amo, el amor que ha puesto entre nosotras, y tu corazon que ha sido cultivado por el mas grande jardinero, por eso es la pureza y la esencia que de el brota, esencia que llega al Senor grata y agradable.
Eres la rosa mas bella del huerto, la mas cuidada, porque has ido creciendo y floreciendo en el alma de quienes te rodean para hacer de una manera u otra nuestras vidas mas concientes con amor. Ese amor del cual tu espiritu esta lleno y dispuesto siempre a dar. Eso es precisamente lo mas cercano al amor perfecto que habla la palabra.
Siguete dejando usar porque esto esta anadiendo explendor a tu ser, ese brillo que viene de lo que tienes dentro, esos dones seguiran creciendo en ti porque los estas usando de la manera correcta. No paro de llorar, has estremecido mi alma, amada hermana mia gracias, nadie nunca antes me dijo algo asi, no podria venir de nadie que no fueras tu...... TE AMO MARISOL
