EVERYONE SAYS YOU ONLY FALL IN LOVE ONCE BUT THAT'S NOT TRUE, EVERY TIME I HEAR YOUR VOICE I FALL IN LOVE ALL OVER AGAIN!
Doug,
When God gave you to me, he planted the image of you deep in my heart!
To love you is to receive a glimps of heaven!
You are my friend, my love, my forever Valentine!
I love you not because of who you are, but because of who I am when I am with you!
You touched my heart and changed my life for the better!
Desiree, Marcus and James
Some stars shine brighter than others, but you three shine brightest of all!
Mom and Dad
I said a prayer for you to thank the Lord above for blessing me with a lifetime of your tenderhearted love. I thanked God for the caring you've shown me through the years, for the closeness we've enjoyed in time of laughter and in tears. And so, I thank you from the heart for all you've done for me and I bless the Lord for giving me the best mom and dad there could be!
DOUGLAS, DESIREE, MARCUS, JAMES, MOM & DAD -
I'LL NEVER FORGET THAT YOU BELIEVED IN ME...EVEN WHEN I DIDN'T BELIEVE IN MYSELF!
Mom
If Icould give you diamonds for each tear you cried for me. If I could give you sapphires for each truth you've helped me see. If I could give you rubies for the heartache that you've known. If I could give you pearls for the wisdom that you've shown. Then you'd have a treasure that would reach up to the skies that would almost match your beautiful and loving eyes. But I have no pearls, no diamonds, As I'm sure you're well aware. So I'll give you gifts more precious... My devotion, love and care!
My Dad
My dad is a person who is loving and kind, And often he knows what I have on my mind. He's someone who listens, suggests, and defends. My dad is one of my very best friends! He's proud of my triumphs, but when things go wrong, my dad is patient and helpful and strong. In all that I do, My dad's love plays a part. There's always a place for him deep in my heart. And each year that passes, I'm even more glad, More grateful and proud just to call him my dad! Thank you Dad for listening and caring, for giving and sharing, but especially for just being you!
Before you were conceived, I wanted you
Before you were born, I loved you
Before you were here an hour, I would die for you
This is the miracle of LOVE!

HAVING A FAMILY IS LIKE HAVING A CIRCLE OF FRIENDS THAT LOVE YOU NO MATTER WHAT!
Having a place to go is a home, Having someone to love is a family, Having both is a BLESSING!
THE HEART IS HAPPIEST WHEN IT BEATS FOR OTHERS!
DESIREE -
A DAUGHTER IS LOVE IN A BRIGHT PINK BOW
A BUNDLE OF HAPPINESS ALL AGLOW
A TOMBOY IN JEANS WITH A TEAR STREAKED FACE
CRYING BECAUSE SHE HAS JUST LOST A RACE.
THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN, NO LONGER SMALL,
SHE'S A VISION OF LOVELINESS DRESSED FOR A BALL
A DREAMER, A SCHEMER, NO TWO DAYS THE SAME
WHAT IS A DAUGHTER...IT'S MORE THAN A NAME.
SHE'S A PLEASURE, A TREASURE. A COMFORT EACH DAY
LOVING AND SWEET IN HER OWN SPECIAL WAY
SHE'S A SENSE OF CONTENTMENT FELT DEEP INSIDE
BRINGING A LIFETIME OF PLEASURE AND PRIDE!
MARCUS & JAMES -
STICKY FINGERS, DIRTY FACES, RUGS AND PILLOWS OUT OF PLACE.
CARS AND TRACTORS HERE AND THERE, BLOCKS AND BOATS EVERYWHERE.
GOLD AND SILVER HAVE I NONE, BUT WORTH A MILLION ARE MY SONS!
DESIREE -
A DAUGHTER IS JUST A LITTLE GIRL WHO GROWS UP TO BE HER MOM'S BEST FRIEND!
MY BOYS-
WHEN YOU WERE BORN THE STARS SHONE BRIGHT,
A TINY PERFECT, WONDROUS SIGHT.
THE BABE BECAME A GROWING BOY,
MEETING LIFE WITH CRIES OF JOY,
FROM AWKWARD STEPS TO READING BOOKS,
GAMES WITH BALLS AND BAITING HOOKS.
AS YEARS WENT BY, A MAN APPEARED,
LOVED AND NURTURED THROUGH THE YEARS.
WITH HONEST EYES HE VIEWS THE DAY,
A CARING HEART IS THERE TO STAY.
A SILENT STRENGHTH, AN ACTIVE MIND,
A BETTER MAN IS HARD TO FIND.
I VIEW HIM WITH BOTH LOVE AND PRIDE,
FOR YOU, MY SON, IN HIM RESIDE.
Only love let's us see normal things in an extraordinary way

Love is the master key which opens the gates of happiness!
Love is to think about someone else more times in a day than you think about yourself!
The only love worthy of a name is unconditional!
