My life story

This all starts when I was four, My parents had had 3 kids of their own, My dad's daughter (half sister)so that makes four. Well first we adopted, what I now call my sister Shania. Either way, we would be related, because see she was my cousin. Her mom went to jail 3 weeks after she was born, so her mom had to give her other two children to a lady named Maxine. Maxine couldn't take the youngest child, "Shania" So my mom and dad said they would take her, I felt so bad for her, like I do now, because she feels unwanted sometimes.

But that's not the only sad thing. A year later, In June 2004, my whole life gets turned upside down. My grandpa visited our house, and so my dad decided to walk him home, all of us kids fell asleep before he could get home. My mom stayed up so she could make sure he made it home. My mom wakes us up that night, to tell us that my dads life has been taken, He was right in front of my grandpas house, when Two black males came in front of my father, and shot him in the chest. He died immediately. When we all got the news, every single person in the house burst into tears. We all loved him with all of our heart, that it stopped. We had my fathers funeral, and that was the last time I've ever seen him in person.

We mourned for a very long time, till my mom finally had the heart to date again. My mom had a boyfriend a couple years later. His name was Brian. Us kids thought he was funny, until we met the bad side of him. A year later, us kids met the real side of him. In 2007 my mom had a baby with him. His name is Andre. I was the happiest person alive when it came to that, but Brian was still really mean, My mom was with him till Andre was about 3 years old. The reason, they broke up, was because He threatened to hurt her, and us kids, just because she to a vacation to Hawaii for a week. Now, how stupid is that? Well, when my mom got back, she called the police, and he had to take all his stuff out of our house, and not come closer than 100 yards to any of us. I was so glad, when that happened, because he used to hit us when my mom wasn't there, because what if he hit us more for telling her? My mom told me that she thought we liked him, and that was the only reason she stayed with him.

Luckily, there is a happy ending to this story so far, My mom was of Facebook one day, and got a message from this man named Omar Spencer, she said that was her first love. He had made a Facebook, just to find her and get back in touch with her, She was pleased, and long story short, they made a long distance relationship work, he came out from Virginia to visit, and meet us kids for the first time, he was one of the coolest people ever, a year later, he came out to live with us, my mom is so in love with him, that she wants to get married to him.

I know that the father that I have, will always be the one I can't replace, and I will forever have him in my heart, because he is deceased, doesn't mean I can't still talk to him, I talk to him every now and then, On my fifth Birthday he and my mom bought my 4 care bears, I still have all of them, because I remember him showing me how one of them glow in the dark, I sleep with it every night and think of him.
His name was Cordell Harris Jr.
and he will forever be in our hearts <3
