When Gary and I met, I knew with him came a sweet little girl that would grow us to a blended family, with 3 amazing children.

This beautiful little girl came into our lives when she was 3 years old. It has truly been an honor to watch you go through every milestone thus far in life. We have watched you grow into a warm hearted beautiful young lady.

It’s now your Senior Year of HS and with it – every last milestone that marks this Chapter of your life. Your Senior Portraits session was your last school picture in this Chapter and a bittersweet one for all of us. Your last one before you head off into the world to pave your own path. A path you have already started laying the foundation for- with your upcoming Photo Gallery Showing.

I know your mom Mari was with you yesterday, watching over you while taking in every moment and feeling every emotion, that the little girl she fought so hard for and loved so much, is soon closing this chapter in life. I’m sure Tata was saying “oh my cupcake, don’t forget your shoes.” And Nana as she watched over saying “little bunda.”

We are all so proud of you and all of your hard work.
