Dear Mom and Dad,

Words cannot describe how honored I am to be your child. You tell me how proud you are of me every day, but you should know that I am proud of you. I am proud that you are so selfless, so caring, and loving. I am proud of what you have done. I am proud to be your child. Everyday you amaze me and overwhelm me with love. You inspire me on so many levels and I do not know what I would do with out you. You make my days brighter and my life so complete. Not everyone is as blessed as I am but I am over flowing with blessings considering how great you are. Everything you do does not go unnoticed and I hope to one day be as half amazing as you are.

I know my transition to college was hard, and I think it was equally as hard for both parties. Just know that everyday I miss you more and more. I love coming home and wish I could go home every weekend.

I cannot thank you enough for sending me to college. I know I am farther than expected, but I know that it is the best fit for me. Thank you for allowing me to be a first generation student, it is so amazing and I hope to make you proud. I use everyday to improve myself and my academics to prove it was worth all the stress, worry, and saving. Every dollar you have put into me I promise I will put to the best use. You taught me so much and I can never repay you.

You both have inspired me in so many ways and you will never know how much you have taught me. I may not be able to buy you a beach condo when I graduate, but I will always take care of you.

I love you so much,

Brianna
