a brief little thing on the past five years of my life, and then what's gone by of this one, kk?
First year--- parents get divorced, mom packs up me and saskia and moves us across the country from FL to Washington State, away from our friends and family. then gets married to my stepdad.
stepdad gets deployed, my mom gets preggie. at 13 weeks, we lose the baby. name of Emily Angel. i take over caring for the family.
Second year--- mom gets preggie again. this time she makes it the whole way and Adam is born at the end of the year. a week later he gets pneumonia and spends christmas in the hospital with my mom by his side. we and saskia stay with the neighbors down the street.
third--- we move here to the east coast, where i keep slipping down into depression cause my dad gets married to a b***h who kicks me out of their house at every chance.
fourth--- this year is relativley normal, except i almost flunk out of school. still depressed.
fifth--- adam diagnosed with asthma, a whole slew of stomach troubles, celiac, and more. i'm diagnosed with van whilibrams. we also have two more miscariages: Heidi Amelie Elisabeth, 17 weeks, and Nathan Robert Daniel, 16 weeks.
this year--- first week of the new year, my almost uncle gets stabbed to death in a parking lot while trying to help a young woman being harassed. being the hero, he gets killed.

and this would be JUST the past five years splendid little highlights. happy now?
