I have had a lot happen over the years of my life but one thing that always keeps me going is hope. I can’t even start to explain how important hope is to me. Hope is… Hope is going over memories in my head and wanting to make new ones with new people. Hope is getting to see my nephew big ,strong, and healthy. My cousin and I when we were very little use to pretend we lived in Sydney Australia at the time that was because we loved Finding Nemo but now it is more to me than just pretending at my grandma’s house, it is a hope that I would do anything to pursue. Now I really don’t see the difference of hopes and dreams except my dreams change every day and my hopes have always been the same. I had a dream when I was very little to have the most money in the world. When I got a little older my dream was that everyone in my family could live forever. Now my newest dream even though I am young is to go to San Fransisco University become a writer and write a book. I have always wanted to write a book but I always start, get to page 100 or so, then never find a conclusion and delete it I have made three books that end that way. Well I am going to wrap this up by saying that I hope that your dreams will come true.

Maddy, you possess so much more than just hope. I believe that your “hope” Wells up from inside you. From the same place where you have drawn so much courage, compassion and love. You are an amazing young woman with so much to share. I will be looking forward to following the thoughts of my abnormally exceptional daughter.
