To my mom & uncle Steve:

You two are the most amazing people I have ever met, literally. Growing up I always felt like I was dealt an unfair hand with an absent father, and a mother who had to work so hard every single day to raise her kids. But, I am lucky because now I see my life is exactly what is it supposed to be.

Mom, you have always been so strong, so willful, and no matter what the struggle has been- you have overcome it. It’s because of you that I am such a determined person, who knows life can be tough, but is able to handle challenges gracefully without giving up.

And Steve, I hope you know how influential you have been on my life, I am where I am because of you. You stepped in to help my mom raise us, and we weren’t your responsibility, I don’t know of any other men who would do that. You mean the world to me, and I will always appreciate you and everything you have done. I love you two so much, thank you for everything.

Love always & forever,
Antasha
