Mother

Sunday I was writing my thoughts on mothers day. something about how I Struggle with negative thoughts around mothers day but my mother leaving me has taught me a lot. I know what choices not to make so my life doesn't go in the direction hers has. It disappeared so I guess it was something that shouldn't have been posted.

My sister said it best: "I find it strange how relationships can come or go. They say the bond between a mother and child could never be stronger but I find that statement to be misguided. The subject of “mother” shouldn’t be the woman who carried and then gave birth after nine months; the “mother” is whoever had the largest impact in being raised. It’s the person who stood by every decision that was made but also supplied hints along the way in which direction to travel. As Sherrilyn Kenyon wrote “We have three kinds of family. Those we are born to, those who are born to use and those who we let into our hearts."

I am so thankful for my grandma and grandpa for taking me. Although my cousin in back in her daughters life my grandma is now on her 4th set of kids, 3 of her own, 2 step kids, myself and cousin, and now a great granddaughter. 

I love my
