We never had money so my mom taught us how to learn and be creative on our own. We learned a great love for the outdoors from her. She would walk us to school a mile a way and back even in the cold 4 feet of snow that Denver used to get. She was also epileptic and had seizures often. Despite her own difficulties, she has always been the most selfless person I have ever known. Always putting her children first. less »

She leads by example. She loves unconditionally and makes a difference to all she meets. She is full of mercy and grace and yet holds people accountable. Although she worked when we were young, she made sure to have a schedule where she or my dad would be with us when we were not in school. It was important to her for us to know that they were there for us. We never doubted that we mattered. less »
