You came bustling into the world, a mighty bundle of energy, ready to do great things. And no wonder--you stand on the shoulders of those who came before, and you, too, were BORN TO SHINE. You come from laughter and love. From a big family--by way of the bayou--who ate crawdads at the crab boil after Sunday service. From a mother who's as warm as a brassy African sunset and a father whose emboldened strength lies just beneath his tender heart. And you? You embody a spirit that soars with delight over new possibilities. You can go anywhere. YOU CAN BE ANYTHING.
