Timothy Green
Dear Mom and Dad... about my leaves, I gave them all away... it's what you do with gifts. I gave one to Aunt Brenda so now she can rock. I wanted Uncle Bub to have one... and Miss Crudstaff. Coach Cal got one... he said it was my best kick ever. I gave one to Reggie because he really like one. I left one for Grandpa Jim where I know he'll find it and Joni... she got two... and for you guys... here's what I know. If you came to me and said, "There are two people in the world who want you more than anything, they'll do their best... they'll make some mistakes and you'll only get them for a short time, but they will love you more than you can ever imagine, well, when that's true"... I'd say, "so much is possible"

[retelling their Halloween courtship story]
I had seen a lot of pencils, but I had never seen one quite like your mom. Breathtaking. But I was too scared to even talk to her, so I wrote her a note. Yeah...

What did it say?
Cindy Green
It said, "It feels to me that with a pencil anything is possible."
