I first met Jordan when she was 14, her father introduced us after having dated for a while. A short 6 months after, I was her step-mother. Thank you Jordan for never being a brat or a bitchy teen-age girl. You don’t know how much I appreciate never once hearing, your not my mother! During the high-school years things could have been rough, but you were a good kid and only a few times worried the crap out of us. I never found drugs, cigarettes or alcohol on you, so I’m now convinced you are smarter than most! Either you hide rebellion/experimentation well, or you never did those nasty things to begin with. I will choose to believe the second! Thanks for bringing so much laughter and fun into our house while you lived here. It was a true pleasure to call you my daughter.

Over the years you have been trying to find your way and I’m sure you will. You are smart, sweet and talented and just need to figure out what path is right for you. You just turned 21 and have so much to look forward to, stay smart and sweet and trust that good things will happen if you believe in yourself. Thanks for all the great memories, and here’s to many more. It is a true pleasure to call you my daughter! Love you miss Jordan. Mama Bethie
