the story of us

family

you just have to make your way
threw the difficulties
Bailees moms drove us to my house and I ran inside quietly since it was only 7:00. I put on cream colored shorts that had Maroon roses on them and I put on a Maroon t-shirt. I left my hair in a messy curled pony tail and ran back out to their car.
Her mom drove us to a shopping center and said she'd pick us up in and hour. We went to frys and took a bunch of pictures and bought all the gifts for Brooke, after going to a couple other stores and buying a lot more, Bailee's mom picked us up.
❁ ❁ ❁
We had all set up a bunch of balloons and made a poster, we had a box of donuts and chocolate covered strawberries and a couple new t-shirts. We had balloons hanging up and all over the floor. We had a bunch of roses as well, and we bought a new straightener and cheer outfits. Just 5 minutes till Brooke would walk threw that door.
A couple minutes later, we hid. I hid behind the curtains, Bailee hid behind the couch and Ricky layed on the floor. We heard the door unlock and open. I heard Brooke's laugh and felt happiness inside.
After the shut the door, we all three, perfectly in sync yelled "welcome home Brookie!" She screamed and covered her mouth. I saw tears in her eyes witch made tears in the rest of our eyes. We all had a group hug that lasted a really long time. After we said our hellos, Liam, Cody, and Emery and Paige all came over.
Brooke opened up her gifts and we sang songs and dances around. We went out back and pushed each other in the pool and still sang at the top of our lungs.
hope, faith, and family are three simple words, yet they still can help you threw the toughest battles. Hope, that little bit of trust, that little bit of 'it could happen' that little bit of desire.
        Faith, trust and confidence. In God, in your family, in your world. That feeling of promise, that feeling of 'well I can make this happen, with a smile' that feeling of maybe it will be forever.
Family, doesnt mean DNA. It's the people who always have your back, the people who will do anything to put a smile on your face, the people who eat your food, and the people, the people who mean the world to you, or more than the world to you.
       Three words, three phrases that keep you going. Remember those three simple words, hope, faith, and family. That's all you need for a successful life.
