Who's Who?

A guide to the people you will commonly hear me speak of in this blog...

John
This is my wonderful soldier husband. I love him with all my heart.

Ashaylia or Shayli
This is my beautiful little girl. I love her more than words can express even if she is often a complete terror.

Tyler
Tyler is my angel son. I lost him when I was 13 weeks pregnant, and I technically didn't know the gender but nothing will ever change my mind that he was a little boy. I miss him every day and still wonder what my life would be like with him in it.

Caleb
This is my stepson. He's a blonde-haired, blue-eyed, intelligent little boy who wants to be just like daddy. He doesn't live with us but we do our best to see him whenever we can.

Amber
This is Caleb's mom. We don't get along very well due to a fight before John and I got married, but we tolerate each other as best we can.

My Dad
This should be pretty self explanatory. He's always been there for me and we're bestest buds.

My Mom
Again, pretty self explanatory. She passed away in 2008. I'm very much still working through it and I miss her every day.

Kristin, Brittany, and Sabrina
These are my sisters. I grew up with Sabrina, but didn't meet Kristin or Brittany until I was 19 years old, didn't speak to them for the first 17 years of my life. I'm so glad I've found them. I love all three of my sisters dearly.


Amanda or Amy
I considered this girl my best friend for the longest time, but as life has gone on I realized we are not as close as I always thought we were. I'm trying to get that friendship back. She's more than worth it and holds a very special place in my heart.

Jessie/Jessica or Weeble
This girl is my happy. She stepped in when I felt like everyone else had walked out. She was the friend who was my rock through my harder times during my husbands deployment. I love her to death and we do some crazy ass shit together. She's quite possibly the sweetest person I know, and she's shown me how strong a person really can be.

Allen
Allen was my best friend throughout high school. We kept in touch after I moved and stayed close. We had a very special relationship. He committed suicide in 2010, and I miss him very much.



I'm sure I will mention other people. If they show up enough that I feel they should be mentioned, I'll add them. Until then... eh, this should be enough.
