Overcoming the Tragedys

Through all the hardships and tragedys that has happened in my moms life through the past four years she overcomes all of these and still manages to carry on. It all started with her best friend passing away. The person that she could always talk to, the only person she ever talked to passed away. She went through grief and depression and sometimes I was scared for her. The next thing that happened was her husband, my stepdad, for ten years left her. She loved him with all her heart and did not see why he would do such a thing. Neither did I. She was a great wife, and a loving mother which she still continues to be. After he left she could not pay all the bills and the house payment by herself so we lost the house. Soon after that the worst tragedy of all took place. On August 18, 2006, her son, my brother, Justin Mcmahan, died. He was in a car wreck. She was devistatated, we both were. He was twenty years of age and still had his whole life ahead of him but it was cut short. He never leaves my moms mind nor mine. Shortly after that, I became pregnant. My mom seen this as a blessing,but still yet it was going to be hard on her as well as me. To me my mom is strong and independent and still carrys on eventhough all this has happened in her life. She is my hero. She is my mom.

Living in the 1920's

Based on what I have learned about the 1920's I would not have minded living in that decade. I would have actually probably liked it.

Nature's First Green is Gold

The first blooming on the trees of spring are not green, but they are gold. The gold does not stay though. They eventually bloom into green leaves or beautiful flowers. Driving down the road I have noticed all the gold. If it is from the leaves on the ground, to the buds on the trees, or the brightly colored bushes, you can find gold almost anywhere. It is a beautiful season.

Happy St. Patrick's Day :)

What does St. Patrick's day mean to me? Well it sored of reminds of my brother, Justin Mcmahan (R.I.P). He was as irish as it gets. Red hair, temper like no other, he just gave off the ora of Irish. Everytime this holiday comes around and I see all the green and clovers I can not help but to think of him.
