It's pretty sad that I don't have a current picture of my parents. I'll have to work on that. That's not the most current picture of us all, seeing as it was taken in about 1983 or so, but it was the first one I could find and get scanned. My mom's hair is KICKIN. LOL Anyways, my parents are the coolest parents I've ever met. They've always given me and my sister everything that we've wanted, even if it meant that they'd have to go without something. I was always really embarrassed of them when I was in Elementary and Middle School, but once I was exposed to everyone else's parents, I realized how cool mine were. Yeah, maybe they didn't let us stay out late, or have parties or things like that. But I look at the people who's parents I used to wish were mine, and all of those people are addicted to drugs, have been teenage parents, and/or are going nowhere in life. It makes me appreciate what I have been given. I won't lie, I hated it when I couldn't stay out until 4AM, or go out whenever I wanted, but I look back and see that they were just trying to raise me and my sister right. I didn't realize things like this when I was in Middle School and the beginning of High School and I treated my parents like crap. My parents and I had probably about one fight a week. Big fights. I feel horrible about how I treated them back then and I just hope they know how much I now appreciate it and love them for it.
