It’s hard. Everyday is a different struggle, from trying not to lash out at my sisters, or to be on time to work, or to at least just get an hour of studying in. It’s hard, not living for yourself, to be 22 years old and have to take care of your family. It’s so hard, until it isn’t. Until one person shows you that life could be simply amazing, if you just let it be.

  • My Story

It's amazing how one little choice can change a life. Not just for you, but for everyone around you. I knew that our family welcoming in a foster child would change things, but I never imagined how much. I never imagined the burden my new brother carried. But he didn't have to carry that weight on his own any longer. Sometimes family wasn't linked by blood. Sometimes a brother comes when you least expect it. Sometimes adventure comes when you step out by faith. Sometimes family is all you have Sometimes love leads to pain. But I'd embrace the pain all over again for him. Because really, we were all that he had.
