Family Consists of Those Who Love You Most
I am so blessed. I’m blessed because, long ago when I was a little girl I got a big sister in the most unheard of ways. I have a big sister that is the daughter of my mother’s first husband, from his second wife. Ever since our first meeting I was always her baby sister. She’s always been my big sister. Even when no one else is there, I can count on her.
I’m so blessed that my mother never...

A Survey of My Life
As I lay in my bed I’m pondering everything that’s happened in my life. Those notable moments.
Over a decade ago, after my mother died, I was homeless. I now live in a beautiful, albeit, traditional home. It’s quite conservative, yet grand. It’s a “Colonial”.

Happy Birthday Mommy
The last time I saw you, you were in the embalming room with your lips and eyes sewn shut. I knew that you we not there. I knew then, that I’d lost my mother and best friend, yet I did not cry. The tears would come about three years later. I didn’t cry then, nor at the funeral, because I knew then that you were not there.
Today would be your 70th birthday. I have my own family now. I...

It's been a long time...
…but the time has come.
I have had the most amazing time over the last few months. So many wonderful things have happened in my life at lightning speed, I could barely keep up. Thank God for being able to just slow down and reflect.
For years I couldn’t wait for my 35th birthday to come, and now it has. I guess I thought by then, my life would have finally taken shape. To me, it...
