Why I love my family

Two summers ago I was prettttty miserable. I would just sit on the couch and cry for like two hours at a time. But my family was still so nice to me. They made me go outside in the sun and participate in distracting activities. My mom even got me a cat! She told me it wouldn't feel like this forever, and she was right.

Then several weeks ago I was homeless for like a week and a half. And my brother John let me stay with them. The best part was that all of their kids were really sick... and then I moved into their basement with MY sickness, and they had another sick kid to take care of. Jenny and John have always been so good to me. They feed me, like, all the time, even now that I am supposed to be an independent adult. I did my laundry over there for a couple of years and Jenny would always take me grocery shopping. They let me vent about boys and roommates.

They are the best.

You know what would make my perfect family even better? Cleo transferring to BYU and being my roommate. :)

Or Elizabeth moving to Idaho where housing is cheap!

You could practically buy a farm...
