Your Heart Soul Energy & Spirit have saved me from myself, you’ve stuck by my side when I didn’t deserve you, you loved me at times when I didn’t love myself. You’ve taught me so much in the last 5yrs that I can’t begin to thank you enough. Anansa I love you to the moon & back. Thank You for being such an amazing Friend, Lover, Mother & support system to this family. Oh, also thank you for being my fiancé. Happy BIRTHDAY TO THE MOST AMAZING WOMAN I KNOW.
