SAMTSIHRC SI OS GNIZAMA. M'I OS DETICXE!!!! (CHRISTMAS IS SO AMAZING! I'M SO EXCITED)

I love Christmas. It is my favorite holiday, because I get to spend time with my family that I don't get to see very often.

My family is BIG. I have my immediate family, which is my dad, mom, Faith, and Hope, but then I have my extended family, which is all my aunts, uncles, grandparents, and lastly, cousins.

I have A LOT of cousins. Emily, Emilia, Evelyn, Emma, Evan, Edward, Ella, Elenora, Eveleigh, Elizabeth, Elise, Eloise, Evangeline, Ethan, Elijah, Easton, Emmanuel, Elliana, Emilio, Erick, and Elion. These are all from the same immediate family! All the older cousins, Emily, Emilia, Evelyn, Emma, and Evan help out my aunt with all the younger cousins. Because there are so many of them, they tend to drive my Aunt Emmerson cRaZy. Whenever they go in public, people always think they are with friends, but they are not. They are just an insanely big family. My uncle Emmet, works a lot, so not very many people know very much about him.

On the other side of the family, I only have one cousin, we call her Baby Sheron. My aunt Shannon has always had a hard time having kids, so when Sheron came along, everybody was overjoyed. Shortly after Sheron was born, Shannon's husband, Seth, died of cancer. He had been battling it for a long time. Now, Sheron is here, but Seth is not.

It is really nice to see my family, especially since I live in Florida and they live in California. My other cousins live in New York. They are basically across the U.S. Because it is hard to fly with 21 kids, we normally fly to California for Christmas. This year, my mom told us that we could bring a friend. Not one friend each, a friend for all of us, because all of our cousins are either a lot older than us or 10 years younger than us. We had to pick between Sara, Savanna, and Calin. I don't know how I was going to be able to pick between my three best friends. I didn't want to upset anybody, so I decided that I would not bring anybody.

Life is full of really hard decisions, and sometimes you don't want to make the wrong decision, and so you don't make any decision at all.

I think about things really deeply a lot, and sometimes my mom thinks that there is something wrong with me, but I just think that I can get really deep.

One of the hardest decisions I have ever had to make was that I had to decide whether the doctors should amputate my legs or not. I did not want them to, because I need my legs to walk, however, my mom thought that the doctors should amputate my legs because of how much damage had really been done to them. At the end, we decided to not amputate my legs. My mom told me that the decision was ultimately up to me, but I could tell that she wanted what was best for me. Sometimes in life, the decisions that we make affect our entire lives. Other times in life, you make decisions that you regret. I am the kind of person that does not like to make decisions. I always think that I am going to make the wrong decision and my entire life could be affected. This is why I was so unsure about amputating my leg. I thought I would never be able to walk again. Now I can walk, partially, but if I had my legs cut off then I wouldn't be able to walk at all. This was so hard for me. I had no idea what to do. My mom almost forced me to get my legs amputated, but that was not what I wanted.
