All You Need Is Love

Everyday, my cousins continue to amaze me. They have been graceful, kind, loving and a great source of my strength through the most difficult time in my life. I am so proud of each and everyone one of them and I beam with love and pride when I think of them. They truly are the greatest bunch of kids and its a privilege and honor to call them my friends as well...
My mom loved Jennifer, Ashley, Mikey, Emily and lil Steven unconditionally, individually and with her whole heart. When you are loved this way, with no limits and no boundaries, you have no choice but to love that way right back. We are the luckiest bunch of kids to be loved in that way...and we are so lucky that we all have each other to lean on...through each and every one of us, my mom and her love will live on forever and forever.

"When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives means the most to us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a warm and tender hand. The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not healing and face with us the reality of our powerlessness, that is a friend who cares."
