Because of you, I know I matter.
You show that you love and care about me. You gave me a bed to sleep in, food to eat, clothes to wear, and things to play with.

Because of you, I am confident.
You encouraged me to try new things and not to be afraid.

Because of you, I learn from my mistakes.
You taught me from right to wrong. You discipline me when I make bad choices.

Because of you, I am who I am.
You taught me how to stand out and not be afraid.
-WIth Love, Amari
