You showed me the greatest form of love.
You may not have put a band aid on my scraped knee when I fell off my bike, instead you offered me a shoulder and silence while I cried.
You comforted me during the most painful days.
You may not have given me a home to live in or a bed to sleep on, but you've given me something with far more warmth.
You are my home away from home.
You are my family.
