Relationship Reflection


My family

My boys with grandparents and cousins


 
The relationships that I have built throughout my life have impacted the person I have become. Whether it be my family, friends, mentors, neighbors, children, or significant other, the things I have experienced and learned from these relationships have fostered the choices and decisions that I have made. I am thankful to have people in my life that inspire me to be the best me, challenge me to achieve my dreams, and love me unconditionally.

My grandmother is a very important person in my life and continues to be an active, involved person within our family. She has always been a person that I could count on. Growing up, she gave me consistency and security. She has instilled in me the value of family and created a passion in me to be a kind and giving person. I strive each day to be a person that she will be proud of.

My friends influence my daily life by being there for me. They are there to support me when I need a lift, laugh with me when sharing fun stories or experiences, talk to me when needing guidance or advice , and just spend quality time with me. These relationships are one of a kind.

My husband has been in my life since my early teens. We have literally grown up together. It is amazing to me how strong our relationship is because of the trails and triumphs we have endured. My relationship with him and my children are the most valuable in my life. He is my best friend, my partner, my cheerleader, my supporter, my encourager, and my inspiration. We meet each other half way in everything that we do and realize that life will occasionally throw us curve balls. Because of the strength of our relationship, I believe that we can do anything!
. "The most wonderful of all things in life is the discovery of another human being with whom one's relationship has a growing depth, beauty and joy as the years increase. --Sir Hugh Walpole



The relationships I have made with my sons are indescribable. Every ounce of my heart and soul is put into the love I have for them. I have created relationships with my children that will hopefully leave a legacy for many generations. I have tried to express the qualities that I believe an amazing mother should have. They make me feel important, special, and loved! I think that the relationships and love I have for my children makes me a better educator because I understand that the children I teach are as precious to their parents as mine are to me. I want to make sure that I take care of them the way I want my children to be cared for. I try to give them the best education I can because that is what my children and all children deserve.
