ET: The Heart of Ms. Thomas:
I love God
I am determined
I am an old soul
I dance to the beat of my own drum
I am a natural leader
I am simple
I try to think before I speak
I am a hard worker
I am grateful
I am an optimist
I love to travel
I truly love few, but I try to love all
I love life, through the good and bad because my struggles make me who I am
I want to change the world by first changing me
