I am a mother, a daughter, a sister, and an aunt. Today, I can add on my list "and an author." I didn't know how to write; it was when I went to city college and a professor stated, "To me you should write because you have a lot in you." Today I want to thank my professor for his encouraging words. I always wanted to own something. Today, I am an author. I made sure my son was put first. Now I can do me.
