Benjamin Franklin~The Autobiography

Original Paragraph:
Dear Son,
I have ever had a pleasure in obtaining any little anecdotes of my ancestors. You may remember the enquiries I made among the remains of my relations when you were with me in England and the journey I undertook for that purpose. Imagining it may be equally agreeable to you to know the circumstances of my life-many of which you are yet unaquainted with-and expecting a week's uninterrupted leisure in my
present country retiremment, I sit down to write them for you. Besides, there are some other inducements that excite me to this undertaking. From the poverty and obscurity in which I was born and in which I passed my earlier years, I have raised myself to a state of affluence and some degree of celebrity in the world.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dear Mom,
I have been your daughter for 16 years and 4 months. You may remember the times when I used to be cute and it seemed I appreciated you alot more, but that isn't true. These are the years when I need you the most; to teach me things and give me support when life gets confusing. Despite what you may think, I really love a hug from you once in a while. I know you are stressed about the day when you and Dad have to give me away, but trust me, I will ask you to pray with me and I will know he is the right one. I love you mom.
