Today, on the 51st birthday of the most wonderful mother to ever grace my presence, I dedicate my new realm to my mother.  To celebrate the role she has played in my life as inspiration and motivation to pursue my words 'til the whole picture is formed.  Thank you for the greatest gift I have ever received, a chance at life bound up with the opportunity to explore my passion for words.   May all our years from this day forth be better then the ones before.  Amo mater meus.
