Through thick and thin...

I have always struggled to find my place in my very large family.  This is no surprise to anyone. I seem to be the most sensitive out of all of the kids.  I have always been told to, "Suck it up," or "You really need to have thicker skin..."

I missed Mom a lot this weekend as I navigated, once again, a family argument.  She always had a way of reassuring me that I need to believe in my family even when it hurts. That, "I need to remember that family is always there, whether we like it or not!"

Sometimes I just miss her comfort.  She always said that I was the most like her with my sensitive heart.  I often feel like my family thinks it is a bad thing, but Mom always made me feel like it was a positive trait.

 I miss you, Mom. I miss your guidance, your support, and your unconditional love.
