Be Who You Needed When You Was Younger

in inspirational •  7 years ago  (edited)

Being a kid growing up in a small town where everyone
knows everyone is hard. It's even harder when you are
growing up without a parent and being known as the "Sick"
Child..

Even more soo a daughter growing up without her mother
and needing two open heart surgeries. My mother wasn't gone from
the earth but just didn't want to be around.

I learned how to to lean on my dad for things a teenage girl
shouldn't. From "Female Problems" to dress shopping I had to do
it with my dad.

I always wondered what it would be like to have
the perfect family that I seen all around me. As much
as my grandmother and dad tried to give me the love that
I was missing it wasn't the same. I just needed the love
and bond from a mother.

As I got older I realized how much I really needed that bond
and found myself getting sad over the smallest things and just
wishing that my mother was there.

I ended up making a promise to myself that when I did become
a mother that i would never let my childern feel the way I did growing up.

I would do everything in my power to have that bond with them. To make sure they knew how much
I loved them. How much i needed them just as much as they needed me.
I would do my best to be everything that they needed me to be and be
who I needed when I was younger.

****My greatest blessing call me mom..

mom,dad,brother,sister,friend that you needed or wanted when you
was younger.
