"A family is a unit composed not only of children but of men, women, an occasional animal, and the common cold."

ive really learned a lot about family in the last few years. when youre little you think your family is perfect. but in reality, there is no such thing as a perfect family. and as you get older you kind of create your own family.

ive learned you dont need to be blood to be a family. if you know me you know i have the worlds most complicated family. but i honestly dont think id have it any other way.

if youre blood related or not youre just as much family. my stepdads family has basically adopted me and made me one of the family. from the day they entered my life thats how its been. they are one of the best families and im so glad that theyre mine.

im a lucky one because i have 3 sets of grandparents. i had my dads. but sadly theyre both gone now and i miss them so much. then there are my moms. theyve been there since i was born and i do get to see them at every holiday which i am greatful for. and for the last 6 years ive had my stepdads parents. ive been worried and scared these last 2 days because my stepgrandpa had a heart attack. its scary thinking about the WHAT IF'S. those are the worst.

but like i said, as you get older you learn what really makes your family. you have those pathedic ones that you hate to admit are you family, you have the ones that you love the most. and then there are your friends and the family you create your self.

family is one of the most important things to me and i dont think that i would have it any other way.
