My mom has always been my biggest cheerleader, giving me encouragement to push myself to success....
My dad died when I was six and I have only one memory of him. I will always cherish that memory and I know he is still with me.....
I was the oldest of three and being the oldest meant I had to make sure I was a good role model. These two people are the reason I love helping people....they are also responsible for me having great debate skills!
My uncles stepped in to help my mom out after my dad died. I spent a lot of summers visiting them in California and Arkansas...
Corby Keith was my favorite cousin. He passed away when we were 16, but he taught me a lot about self confidence and was the first person who was truly my best friend....
My grandmother is the cornerstone of our family. She made sure every holiday was full of fun and laughter....

I like your Childhood Web it tells me that your family is family orientated and it reminded me how close my family and I are.
ReplyDeleteThis is the reason we are so close though good and sad times which makes us a strong united family.
Your web expresses the closeness that you have with your family and the support they provided. As being the oldest it is wonderful that you stepped in as that positive role model. I also like that your grandmother is the glue to the family. My maternal grandmother died when I was 6 and mostly I get told that I am the one that continues on as her. I felt the love with your web as well as the heartbreak for those you have lost. However, they seem to keep you motivated to help others.
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed reading your childhood web. You have a beautiful family. Your childhood web shows that each of your relatives played a very important role in helping you to become the person that you are today. I also lost my father at a young age (10). I cherish and hold on to the few memories that I have of my father.
ReplyDeleteViolet, I am sorry to hear of your loss but I am also touched at the love I can feel you share for your family through pictures and words. They have truly been a support system for you and it shows.
