Hello All!! THIS IS SORT OF A TRIBUTE FOR My little sister, Alysha, who is 14 yrs old has had an article written about her and some of many her successes. She is such an inspiration to me and the rest of my family. She does an A+ job on everything she does. She was born with a form of Spina Bifida and cannot feel her legs from the hip down. Imagine for a moment how that would be in everyday life, I mean talk about trials and tribulations. She rides horses both for fun and competes with them. This amazes me as I am scared stiff of any and all horses, well, okay maybe not the mini ones that are the size of a big dog. I have never in my life met anyone so brave and determined as she. She has had about 30 or so major invasive surgeries already in her young life. She deals with it the best she can though, and is a real trooper.

I don't have any brothers, just my two gorgeous sisters and I am so lucky because of it. These two have been there for me when I felt I was so alone, they have helped me in sooooo many ways. I love them both and have such gratitude towards God for his gift of my knowing them. Because of them, my daughter Quincy, my step-son Blaine, and Colby my Husband, I strive to be a good person and a good example (since I am the oldest sister) But they have Truley been the example for me. HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE!!! I AM THANKFUL FOR MY LIFE AND THE PEOPLE IN IT.
