To my mom—You’re the behind-the-scenes hero and always have been. You’ve sacrificed over and over to make sure I’ve always had what I need and have given me as many of my wants as you could. For that I am forever grateful. Thank you for being my loudest cheerleader and my one and only Shema Shema.
To Jordan—My entire life has been filled with belly laughs and a sense of security because you’re the greatest big brother a girl could ask for. To sum it all up: “Turn out the lights, I lost my necklace.”
To Brandon—You’re my entire world, for better or worse, in sickness and in health, till death do us part. No matter what we’ve walked through or what waits for us in the future, I wouldn’t want to do it with anyone else. Thank you for your patience, support, and humor. You’re my Kevin Arnold.
