Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day You fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way. Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town Waiting for someone or something to show you the way. Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain. You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today. And then one day you find ten years have got behind you. No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun. So you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it’s sinking Racing around to come up behind you again. The sun is the same in a relative way but you’re older, Shorter of breath and one day closer to death. Every year is getting shorter never seem to find the time. Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way The time is gone, the song is over, Thought I’d something more to say.

"And remember, also," added the Princess of Sweet Rhyme, "that many places you would like to see are just off the map and many things you want to know are just out of sight or a little beyond your reach. But someday you'll reach them all, for what you learn today, for no reason at all, will help you discover all the wonderful secrets of tomorrow."

As you make each passage from youth to adulthood to maturity, Sometimes you put your arms up and scream, Sometimes you just hang on to that bar in front of you. But the ride is the thing.

Remember when we were little and we played school and I was your teacher? Cramming those ABC’s into your head so you would not go to school on the first day and embarrass the family by being stupid.
We are so proud of you Ren! As we’ve gotten older I realize that I now can jump on your back at times and you are carryying me! Thanks for being a team player and know that I love you and am proud of all that you have and will accomplish. Love your big sis Jacque (03) Jarrod Kline
Love, Mom and Dad Ren Li
Jarrod,
On June 15, 1989, you entered the world and we were complete as a family once you arrived. You were usually quiet unless you needed to be fed, that hasn’t changed. You could watch cartoons for hours and then at just the right moment interject lines from movies and cartoons that would totally take the edge off any situation. We have been amazed by your ability to lock yourself in your room for hours and days with a project and come out with it completed, be it a 350 Lego Star Ship or a book on how to juggle. Your room became a learning ground and without missing a step you would somehow conquer the problem and emerge victorious. You are loyal, hard working, and have a great sense of knowing bull when you hear it. Deep down I know that if I ever played Jumanji with you, it would turn out like the movie... an adventure. We are proud of you. Love, Mom and Dad

Keep being the sun, Clairey B! The sun is filled with shining light It blazes far and wide The moon reflects the sunlight back But has no light inside. I think I’d rather be the sun That shines so bold and bright Than be the moon that only glows With someone else’s light. - by Elaine Laron

Love, Mom and Dad Oh the places you have been.... From running “calls” with Daisy and Dad, building model rockets to see how they’d fly, making space ships out of cardboard, you even gave boats a try. Putting on concerts with spot lights, building igloos in the snow, always with your little brother in tow. To the mountains to ski, a walk through D.C. to Chicago in Band and Canada you’ve seen, to the beach over and over, so many places to see! Your travels have shown you our world at its best! We’re excited for you as you “fly” from our nest. We’re so very proud of you Adam! Fly like the wind Adammo!!
