    Family Fridays Dozens and Dozens of Crayola Box Cousins

    Lori at Peterson St. Louis are hosting Family Fridays!
     
    I'm a little tired today so I am going to do my Family in Pictures. My Family is a mixture of all Races. My Bio-Family, My Sisters Bio Family and Our Adoptive Family have all Merged. My Parents set the Foundation and did a lot of the work to raise us as accepting, loving, and peaceful people.... That Rock!!! I consider them to always sit at the head of the Table in my Heart. They have done wonderful about keeping in contact and allowing us access (at an appropriate age, me Junior High) to our Families. They maintained contact so I wouldn't have to shuffle later in life and try to figure out where I came from. I've been asked my story by a lot of Bloggers lately and I will do a post soon.

    For now here is my...
