See You Again

Okay so yesterday I was home alone, babysitting my little sister. I was listening to Carrie's playlist while cleaning my room and my sister played with my dolls, and this came on.

I've never cried so hard.

The part that got me was the part when it showed the video on the phone of the little girl running to her dad who just came home. Thats when I burst into tears.

I was on the floor, and my little sister crawled into my lap. I just sat there, holding her and sobbing.

My dad is in the army, and he got deployed when I was in kindergarten. He was gone for a year.

When he came back, the base knew how close we were, so instead of waiting for him at the airport, they let us come outside and watch the plane land, and greet him there. This video kind of explains the time he was gone.

Then, two years later, in 2012, my parents left for Ukraine to adopt my third sibling. They were gone for six months, and all the time I was struggling with school work and personal problems.

My brother and sister went back and forth between our parents, and nothing could explain the feeling I felt when we met back up at the airport.

With a new little sister.

Now, in December, I'm leaving and going to China to adopt my fifth sibling with my mom. I remember the times when my parents left, and I'm scared. I don't know what to expect.

This song has helped me through so many things, whether it be from death, leaving, or just normal teenage troubles.

I know there's a gigantic chance she will see this, but I'd like to thank Carrie for so much. Whether it be See You Again or Cowboy Casanova, her songs have really changed me.

Thank you.
