MCKENZIES GRADUATION:
James and Mckenzie were behind the curtain waiting. James was salutatorian and Mckenzie was following her daddy's footsteps in Valedictorian. She was very nervous and her baby won't stop kicking.
"What's wrong sweetheart?" James asked worried about his girlfriend.
"This baby won't stop kicking." She said very annoyed.
"Maybe it feels that you're tense and nervous." James suggested rubbing her back. Finally the baby stopped kicking and they were ready to march out. Well in Mckenzie's case wobble out. They all got on the stage successfully and no one fell. The principal welcomed everybody and called up the Valedictorian.
"It's been a challenging. 18 years in school. All of us were counting the days and now that its here I don't want to go. We all became a family. Well a big dysfunctional family but I think you get the picture." Everyone smiled, laughed, chuckled, and giggled and she was proud of herself for not messing up.
"For those of you who don't know my mother died in a car accident 3 years ago she was also pregnant at the time so I just didn't lose my mother but I lost my best friend and a little brother or sister. I use to blame myself, in fact everyone in my family did, but I had a reason to. I was the car that caused the accident." She was about to cry but held back.
"When I was growing up she always was there and my father we all took care of each other. My mom and dad shared a love that will never die and my mom and I shared a friendship that I will always miss. When my mom died I was just 14 and now I'm 18
and going to have a baby in a week. 8 months ago, I was raped. I use to hate the world asked it why it had to ruin everything in my life. But a friend told me without pain there would be no compassion. I didn't realize till now what that ment. I no longer hate the world but I count everything that has happen to me as a blessing or an obstacle I need to take in my life so, I was happier and I did better in what I needed to do in school. I'm not just saying thanks but I am offering something my mother offered my father and me. She uses to say with " God anything is possible." She ment to take chances and risks because she knew that we could do it she wanted to save the world and love everyone in it. She believed if you showed care that it would be contages and people would pass it on with a smile so I am going to do the same and I advise you to do it as well. Thank you daddy for showing me care and love, Thank you Rev. Rose for taking the blind of my eyes so I could see and thank you Mommy I miss you and I hope that I can live my life to the fullest like you. And thank you class of 2024." They all stood up with tears in their eyes and smiles across their faces.
"OWWWWWW".

For all those times you stood by me,
For all the truth that you made me see,
For all the joy you brought to my life,
For all the wrong that you made right,
For every dream you made come true,
For all the love I found in you, I'll be forever thankful ,
You're the one who held me up, never let me fall.
You're the one who saw me through, through it all
You were my strength when I was weak,
You were my voice when I couldn't speak,
You were my eyes when I couldn't see, you saw the best there was in me,
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach, you gave me faith 'coz you believed,
I'm everything I am, because you loved me.
Martin was finally getting through it all he took Grace's had and squezzed it and all the memories of Ruthie came back to him he would never let them go.
You gave me wings and made me fly,
You touched my hand I could touch the sky,
I lost my faith you gave it back to me,
You said no star was out of reach,
You stood by me and I stood tall, I had your love I had it all.
I'm grateful for each day, you gave me,
Maybe I don't know that much, but I know this much is true.
I was blessed because I was, loved by you.
You were my strength when I was weak (You were my strength)
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach, you gave me faith 'coz you believed,
I'm everything I am, because you loved me.
You were always there for me, the tender wind that carried me,
A light in the dark, shining your love in-to my life,
You've been my inspiration, through the lies you were the truth,
My world is a better place, because of you.
You were my strength when I was weak (You were my strength)
You were my voice when I couldn't speak (oh when I couldn't speak)
You were my eyes when I couldn't see, you saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach, you gave me faith 'coz you believed
I'm everything I am, because you loved me
