Wow how this family has grown! Family is everything to me. I grew up with my brother's, sister's and niece's and nephew's all around always! I am very blessed to have the amazing family that I have. I love each and every one of them so much. I am the youngest of 9 children and I had the best parents ever!
My mom, well what can I say about her. My memories of her are many. I remember the piano, the singing, talking on the phone to all the kids, the food, the movies, the sewing, her smile, her laughter and most of all... her ultimate love for her family. My dad, oh my, I know I was spoiled by him because I was the youngest, but he and I built a very special bond after Mom died. I learned so much about him and from him. He would give his kids anything they asked for, even if he didn't have it. He would find a way to get it for them. I miss them both so much that at times it is unbearable. But I always know that no matter what is going on, and no matter how long it has been, I can ALWAYS call one of my brother's or sister's to help me through the tuff times. Yes, Family is the most important part of my life!
