A little about me and my crazy world
Yesterday was my birthday. Today has been two years. Two years since God called my sweet mom home. My mom died 2 hours and 50 minutes after my birthday. My dad said she held on long enough so she wouldn't pass on my actual birthday. I tend to believe it's true. Even though she didn't …
