my parents

so this is one of those posts that i've thought about writing for the longest of times, here it goes.

I have tons of memories of my parents. For those of you who don't know, my step-father is my Dad. I call him Dad because he has raised me since I was three years old. My biological father is more of a sperm donor and not a father. yeah, he stinks. So all the memories of I have of my parents involve my step dad. All of the memories I have of my real dad are of hurt, pain, loneliness and abandonment.

anyway, one of the things I will never forget as a young child is watching my parents dance. we would always go to weddings, quinces or just family gatherings and I always remember my parents dancing. the one song i will always remember them always dancing to is george strait's the chair. firstly, if you ain't from texas then you don't know how much this state is obsessed with that man. what a great musicians and us texans pay hundreds of dollars to see him in concert. he doesn't really play much anymore but he still lives in san antonio on a ranch. i absolutely love this song.



i even think my parents went to this concert at the rodeo. for the longest time, my parents have loved george strait and going to his concerts. i mean, what texan doesn't?
i remember sitting there as a young boy and watching my parents holding each other close and dancing. what a sight to see. my parents have definitely had some rough patches in their lives and are even currently going through one right now but i do know that they love each other a lot and that's awesome. i hope and pray that my parents spend their whole lives together. divorce sucks and i don't think anyone should get a divorce. if you love someone once then you can always love them again. this picture is circa 2005 with the grandchildren. they are much older now.

so yeah, there's my one sobby post about my parents.
