All I am, or can be, I owe to my angel mother.

'I'm not beautiful, I'm pretty!' (Angrily at age 2 and a half. After getting into his sister's toy makeup case and being called beautiful...)

“I like lights on buildings, because without them you wouldn't be able to see all the beauty in the world.” (About the lights on the football field at the local highschool.)

'Families are about love overcoming emotional torture.'

'Happiness is having a large, loving, caring, close-knit family in another city.'
