If anyone is reading this, I just wanted to let in on something very personal. My father was killed in an driving accident, he was hit head on by a semi truck on October 14th 2011. That was also my first year anniversary with my boyfriend, who thankfully was so supportive and has been by my side ever since. I want to open up to you because lately it's been hard with so many things going on, like my family trip, moving into my new place and well my birthday which is August 1st. My dad said when I turned 21 he would take me to Sharky's, and well he passed before he could take me. I miss him so much, I try not to get so emotional about it. To be fully honest with you, I'm crying as I write this. It's hard but all of you need to be aware of how much my dad meant to me. If it wasn't for all his love and support and long nights of helping me with my homework and inspiring me-telling me I could be anything I wanted. I don't think I would have made it. It's been hard without him helping me and guiding me, I miss him more than I can say. He was such a huge part of my life, we would talk all the time about anything and everything. He was one of the very few people that could make me smile no matter what. My heart goes out to all of you who have lost a parent that you were once close to. 


Here's a photo of my parents, I'm so thankful to have had both of them through so many years of my life. And to my mother who has been so strong and brave for my family, she is one of the kindest mothers I have ever known. My only happiness come her way.
