Jeannette would at times as me if I would ever forget about her. "NO" absolutely not I would answer her. Why would she even think I would ever forget. Everyday I think of her and always wish she was here with me. If she only knew everything that has happened since she went to Heaven in 2009 she would be happy for us. Her nieces would make her so proud of all their accomplishments. Education is always on their mind. They have set goals for themselves and are on a relentless pursuit of it. Plus they have jobs and have excellent time element. Jeannette's nephew, Christian is learning how to swim and goes with me everyday to the park to run and play and just be a little boy like he should be. I make sure to guide him and teach him just like I did with his two sisters. Jeannette is in Heaven but her spirit lives on in all of us that she so loved. NEVER WILL FORGET ABOUT HER.
Sometimes it is so hard for me so see the good in certain people. It is better for me not to mention names on this post but they just so happen to be reading this post they will realize it is them. Five miles is the distance from my oldest child's house to her father. 5 miles, and he has not attempted to communicate with her in almost 6 years. Before that it was 10 years. They did come to together during Jeannette's battle with breast cancer. It was in short spurts that he interacted with her and almost always in a negative manner. His own flesh and blood.
Yesterday was a very hot day here in Fresno, California. After thinking about it for weeks I had come to a very important decision in my life. It was time for me to dye my hair dark brown and I was determined to do it all by myself. After shopping at Walgreens and standing in front of the hair dye section of the store for a good five minutes in a trance of some short, I picked up the box. Yes, the box with the real pretty lady with dark brown hair on the cover.
