29 Lessons I Learned the Hard Way

Acknowledgements

First of, I would like to thank my incredible parents, whom without, I never would have been born and never could have written these stories. (And that would have been the greatest diaster in the world! Think of how many lives my writing is saiving!!!)

You are the most amazing parents, and I appreciate all the lessons you have helped me learn, even the ones you have let me learn the hard way. Without you guys, I would still need someone to tie my shoelaces, make my bed, and brush my hair for me. (And these are just the basics!) Thank you for teaching me how to take care of myself, and how to succeed. You have been both a teacher and a role model for me. I wouldn’t be anywhere without you, and I hope you know how much I appreciate everything you’ve done for me. I love you very very much.

I would also like to thank my siblings, who taught me how to laugh at stupid things and smile a things that aren’t nearly as funny as I think them to be. You remind me to have fun. I love you guys!

To my readers, especially @Insurgance, @Kwawryk, @BlackVeilBride, @Ilovetrevorj, and @Psychic_Ivy Thank you so much for all your support, even to the end. You had so many opportunities to ditch me, but you didn’t’! (I’m not sure why though??) You have no idea how much your comments and smiley faces mean to me. You taught another lesson: That making others laugh is an amazing thing and totally worth doing.

Furthermore, I have to thank God.  He didn’t need to read the book, to know what I have learned and how I learned it. He planned out my life from the very beginning and knows every lesson I learned, and every lesson that I am going to learn (and believe me, there are going to be a lot more of those) Thank you for giving me the wonderful life I’ve had , even though I don’t’ deserve any of it.

Lastly, I would like to thank whoever invented the hair elastic. You have saved me so many times. Without you I would have walked in to several more doors, got my hair caught in several fans, and had to give people cookies with hair in them.  Thank you.

Sincerely,
