Im walking down the hall. Checking and making sure Journey and Theo were okay. Born September 1, 2014 Journey Lynnette Knight and Theodore David Knight were 3 months now. Seeing fit that it was now: November 1,2014.

Which means its been 3 months since my mother's absence. And 2 years and a month since my dad died.

They were sleeping ,finally it had taken me forever to tire them out.

My phone rings with a an incoming call.

I answer. Its aunt Mae. We hadn't seen each other since last year because of the twins. But that's also the town Jake visits a lot so I planned on avoiding it for awhile.

'Hey, sweetie'

"Hey aunt Mae. How are you?"

' I should be asking you that.'

'I'm good.' I say and that's the truth. I am okay.

'The twins." She questions all though it comes out more as a statement.

'Their good too auntie."

"Good. So I wanted to tell you that I want to see the kids. So Harvy and Lucy are gonna be coming too."

A smile spreads across my lips.

"Auntie that's great when are you coming?"

"Next week."

"Okay I'll see you soon."

"Alright bye sweetie. Love you."

"Love you too."

---------

I sigh.

2 pair of hands wrap around my waist.Pulling toward his warmth.

"G'morning lovely."

I turn and hug him. Burring my face in his chest.

"Morning, babe."

"You wanna go out to eat?"

I sigh."Yea sure." I say not really caring.

A cry echos in the distance. And i sigh again. "I got them." He says rushing away before i can object.

I go to my room and lay down. Minutes later he comes in laying next to me. He ruffles my hair. An action that is common among us.

I was now attending I.U (Independent Uni.) Were I was majoring in Arts.

I usually was attending on the computer. Looking at class activities and interacting. It was nice. Some education was better than none is how I looked at it.

On weekends I was with the kids and mornings. I worked during the nights while Kaz watched them.

Kaz, he stays in the house across from mine. The kids all four of them. Joyce, Kaydence,Wayne and Hayleigh stay with me. I have full custody over all of them. And Kaz lives near us to help.

Danie on the other hand actually lived with us. She also helped with everything, she helped out a lot and I'm entirely thankful for that.

Lillie came over on the weekends too.
Since she's off at college she comes when she can.

Right now life is great.

Its always gonna be great.

I've been through crap and back. But guess what? I'm still breathing.
And yea I've had heart breaks but guess what I'm happy now and that's what matters.

I'm happy with the people around me and the people that aren't.

I've had one of the roughest years. And one of the best.
I've learned and regreted things.
I think that one of the best quotes I read online best sums it up.....

"Today I close the door to MY PAST,open the door to MY FUTURE, take a deep breath and step through to a NEW LIFE."

And I really believe that once I open that door, turn a new page in my book of life that I'll always be happy.

Or a perfect example in the bible:
Psalms: 107,1-" O give thanks unto the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever."
I've learned to have faith in God. And believing he'll have me taken care of is something that I know.

I'm okay with how my life is going.

I'm happy right now and nothing can change that...... Not even Jake.

I didn't get the guy of my dreams. Sure I've lost my parents.

I'm 19 years old taking care of many children but I'll live. For them and for my healthy relationship with Kaz.

Yea I've lost a friend, a crappy one at that. But now I have friends who look out for me and not themselves.

I have people around me that I love and that's what matters. God, Family, and friends. Is what I need. And sure I won't have the guy I gave my heart to. But i can make the best of what I have. Even if that means leaving what I want out of it.

So I'm going to keep living.
Keep making my mark on the world.
I'm just gonna keep moving forward.
And just hope that everything comes out right.
