This is my very first Christmas with my new family. and had everything that a boy could want. but i was still missed my mother so much. my adopted father Lawrence Talbot is getting to know me really well. but i am not the easiest person to get know. but i am trying hard to get to know everybody and to fit in with my new family. but i am an outsider a stranger to this family. but they are growing on me and little by little i am slowly starting to open up to my new family. late at night i sit in my crying for my mother. the pain of losing my still hurts me very deeply. and the memory of my mother dying in my arms rips my heart out. i know that my new really loves me i know that they care about me. i will always love my mother and i will never forget her. i keep a picture of my mother on the table by my bed. i have a picture her holding me when i was a baby. my adopted mother and father are making me feel at home. even Sam is making me feel at home. i often sit and think of a poem that i had once heard. i wonder if those that are sleeping in the ground are not disturbed by the throbbing sound of a one way path to eternity enclosed in my room i speak to the quietness breaking the silence enclosed in my room i speak to the quietness but no one replies eternal darkness with no light to see the unknown all that i can do is sleep a single tear falls a sad remembrance of the night that she was told voices of the night echoed by the winds of time can you not hear them. i know in time i will no longer feel like an outsider. i am very glad to have a family.
