My father was a Baptist Reverend and also a brick mason by trade. My mother was a home maker since the age of 13 years old when she married my father. Back in the old days, it was not unusual for girls to marry young. My parents found my father for my mother and he proved himself to be very respectful and upstanding. My mother did fall in love with my father and they married immediately. My father had a congregation in Tupelo, Mississippi where my mother was born. They moved from Mississippi to Chicago after their 10 born children and that is where I was born...right at home. Being next to the last child gave me the opportunity to observe too much. I chuckle at some of the things that I remember seeing my siblings go through., but I am sad at times when I think about some of our hard times, after my father passed away.
The story that you are about to read is a great deal, in part about my family. Some of the things that you are about to read may be shocking to you. One thing that I will tell you to expect is...anything and everything. Although my father was a Reverend, our family was not the worst, but it was not the best. He did pray for us all though. Have you heard the saying that clergymen have the worse kids. Well, it may be true in some cases, but that doesn't mean all of them. You decide.
After my father passed, my brothers and sisters took on new roles in the household. My oldest brother had passed away in Chicago shortly after moving there. He had luekemia. Shortly afterward my father passed away. My mother was under a vast amount of sorrow and had a nervous break down. We all stuck together and we made it past that. Shortly after that, my uncle helped my mother find a home in southern Illinois and we moved there. I made a few bad and got pregnant early, but, I still continues school the hard way and on to college I went. Shortly after that, I joined the Navy. That is where I decided to write this book. I hope that you have on your seat belts because this is going to be a wild ride.visualizza meno
