Alive With Christ

My parents

Around 4th grade I found out that my dad wasn't my real dad... And when I found this out, he just snapped. Like he always favored my younger siblings a little more then me, but I didn't realize it.

But after I found out, he and my mom got in more fights... He was meaner than usually... It was a whole new person.

He did everything he could to make sure me and my mom didn't spend much time together. For example, he wouldn't let me see her when she got deadly sick. I never got to go near her. It was horrible, my mom is my best friend. I don't know what I would've done with out her.

But because the lack of attention towards me, I started not doing good in school, getting caught up in the wrong crowd... I didn't do anything, but I witnessed bulling, and very very dirty things that I shouldn't have known about when I was 10. This is also around the time I got depressed.

The only people I could rely on at the time was my close friends in the neighborhood I lived in. But at that age like I've said before, I never realized what's going on. Its like my whole world fell. I found out my biological father left me for a bar, and then a year later had a family, that me and my mom didn't know about.
Sometimes I wonder how people can just leave someone that looks up to them stranded, lost, and confused.

I also found out that a man named Craig S. (who took my mom and me in when my mom gave birth to me) is where my last name came from, and my mom got divorced with him a year later, but she didn't let me loose him. Until his new wife came, and she was mean, and mom didn't want me around her, so that's when she left completely.

When I found this out, they got in touch, and we ended up meeting. It was strange at first, but I warmed up to him quickly. And you know what, after almost 5-8 years, he kept a present for me, that was supposed to be my 2nd birthday I think. It was a build a bear workshop bear. And he recorded his voice saying "I love you Haley no matter what"... Err something like that. And he gave it to me.

About a week later I was playing with the bear in the living room, and my step dad (in 4th grade... Actually step dad since 2005... 3y/o) stepped on it, and heard the recording that Craig left, and let's say he through a fit so bad, that he kicked the door down...

I was so scared, I ran through the back door, and me and my mom walked for about 3-4 hours talking... Barefoot...

Let's fast forward to a year later in January. We moved to a different city in November-ish, and my dad had to go on a 2 week trip for work. (Keep in mind this is January of 2014) So my mom decided that her, my little brother and sister and me deserved better, so she packed up some clothes and some belongings. And moved with my Aunt, who lived about an hour away.

So now, I was a child with two siblings, almost homeless, daughter of a single parent, and had depression. That's how I saw my life, but little did I know I was going to have my world flipped up side down....

Hope y'all are enjoying this true story about my life.
