I am a very caring person. I love making ANYONE around me smile, even if I don't know someone, if one crosses my path and looks down I will do something funny so I can see it brightened their day. Everyone needs to feel special and know that SOMEONE in their life cares if they are ok and happy. I am that one that will care no matter the situation. I am a very patient person, and will wait allllll day if I need to. Your family member will be in great hands if I have a say so!
