My Family

In life you will find that your family is your backbone. You'll come to a point where even the friends that you thought were your "best" are nowhere to be found. Having a disability makes this fact even more apparent. This is why I wanted to post a simple photo blog of the people that matter most to me - my wonder family.


Little sister, Eliana with her first haircut by me... she hated it.


Me playing pool for the first time with my dad.

So this is a glimpse of my family. The people I can always count on when I'm in need. My mother and father, Yvonne and Andrew; who pay my medical bills, take care of me when I'm sick, and are always there to listen. My sister, Jessica; moody, but always lets me sleep in her bed when I feel lonely. Jake and Eliana, the youngest two; Twins... always hungry for attention and love having fun. Sometimes I want to pull their hair out, but in the end I love them all more than anything on this earth. This is my family, and I love them. I hope you all enjoyed the pictures, feel free to leave comments below, and stay tuned for my next two blogs coming soon! God bless!
