'I'll start with Sue. When I first met Sue, she was afraid of me because my brother had completely goofed on her and fabricated the fact that I did not like her and that I was mean. So shortly after hanging out a couple of times, she was absolutely part of the family and had embedded herself into my heart. As time grew, I came to know how big her heart is. Sue is constantly doing for others whenever she can, she enjoys a good story, and some drama now and again. Sue continually wins me over when she is just being her. She cries watching Hallmark movies and can figuratively set the world on fire and its all part of who she is, my loveable sister-in-law. She calls me crazy aunt and constantly says I am my nephew's saving grace. Sue, I say this to you: Thank you for being who you are--emotional, loving, fiesty, and happy. I would not want you any other way. Love you Sue. My nephew, Marcus A. Harrell, Jr., is so much like me it's scary, but in a good kind of way. My nephew has the best disposition and outlook on life. My lil' buddy is bright, which sometimes gets him into hot water, however, it is part of life and he's only 14 after all. Marcus looks at the world through an old soul. He's loving where others are cruel and sensitive when others can be rude. He has such an interest in life and all it's various creatures. He states that I inspire him to be better, to set an example for what I wish to see. Lil' buddy--Auntie loves you this much.
