The best things in life are family and friends...and I was blessed with both this week. My brother came home on leave Wed. night. I was so happy, I almost cried. We may joke around and pull pranks on each other alot but we are very close, and it tears me up when he's not around. My son was very happy to see him too. I had to grab him by the back of his shirt to stop him from running through security. He jumped into my brother's arms and didn't let go for like 10 minutes. They have a very close bond, I am so grateful for that. He needs a strong stable male role model right now.
I was blessed with many friends this week, too. My best friend's brother also came home on leave. We were all like one big family growing up. So it was nice to get her and her brothers and me and my brother all in one place again...it has been a very long time since we have done that. So last night we had a cookout and we partied. It was sweet! But just when I thought my day/week couldn't get any better...RJ stopped by! I was like hell yea! I was surprised because he was sick so I didn't think he was going to make it down...and I missed him. RJ is awesome, he's a good man and I really like him alot. We talk, we laugh, we go fishing, and he helped me through some really rough shit last night. i don't know how to explain it but anyone else would have been like, "fuck this shit" and left. But RJ didn't he stayed and he was there for me. He really made everything alot better.
So now there's only one more person I need to see to make my best things in life even better...and that's you Ross! I cant wait for you to come home, I really miss you, too. When you get here I will be soooo happy!
