Life after Death


Today is my father's death anniversary.  My father died when I was 12 years old.  Today, it has been 24 years that I didn't have a father. Come to think of it, I lived twice as long without a father, than I had. 

I was a daddy's girl.  I'm the eldest. Next to me are two boys, Neal and Jared.  For so long, I only had 3 siblings. Then, when I was in 5th grade (1990), my mom got pregnant - with Shane, my little sister. Then, my father died.  Shane was only over 1 year old. And my mom is pregnant with our youngest, Ace, when papa died.

Growing up, loosing my dad was my greatest fear.  I would wake up in the middle of the night and listen to him if he is still breathing.  But September 2, 1992 changed my life forever.
