| Me and Bre Bre |
Good Morning Beautiful Mommies, Dynamic Dads and All the Magnificent folks reading my lil ole blog.
Well summer time is here. Not sure how long you have been rocking with the blog but the weather change means my little sister Bre spending the summer with us.
Bre brings with her big attitude, alot of begging, dress up everyday, a million questions and a bus load of personality. I love every minute..
Just a short story about little Bre. Our mom died when she was one, her dad isn’t in the best place to take care of her, she’s ridiculously intelligent, has a dynamic personality and struggles with finding her place in this world. So much of who I’ve developed into is because of her. She doesn’t know our mother therefore the only direct contact she has to the mother she never knew is ME. My theory is that I owe it to my mother to act like I have some sense and prove she raised me right..LBS.
The lose of a loved one , especially a mother, can disrupt the whole family dynamic. It sure as hell threw my life off.
As Bre gets older she questions where she belongs. That uncertainty mixed with struggles of growing up can play a huge role in adult development. Lord knows I can’t let her grow up ratchet and lost. Nope, my mom would never forgive me.
My sister stares at me like I use to stare at my mom. She admires me and I just can’t abandon her by selfishly just thinking of what I want. I have to be a woman she can look up to.
It’s my responsibility to pass on my mothers love to my sister.
You’ll here more about the adventures of Nelly & Bre throughout the summer.
