Dedications

This one is my favorite:
You gave me Christopher Robin, and then
   You breathed new life in Pooh.
Whatever of each has left my pen
    Goes homing back to you.
My book is ready, and comes to greet
    The mother it longs to see—
It would be my present to you, my sweet,
    If it weren't your gift to me.
    From The House at Pooh Corner

My dedication, although not as elegantly expressed, is just as heartfelt. 

For my family, who gave me the gift of love and the time to create this.
Thank you.  Learning some thing new is so exciting and distracting. 

For my mom, who created the illustrations of our family. 
Thank you for your beautiful work and for depicting me in such a favorable way.  The eyes of love are always the sweetest mirrors.
