Double Yea!!! I'm really glad you have started a blog now I can here all of your crazy stories agagin :) This whole blog thing is new to me too so my blog is a little blah but I'm sure it will get better.
Hey Melissa, I just read your blog. You did a very good job. I enjoyed reading it. I have to comment though on the part of not remembering ever having another race in our house before. What about the 8th grade party that everyone was invited to? We did not exclude anyone that I know of. And I think that just about everyone did come. Also, did you forget about the wild party that you had that your father and I weren't supposed to find out about? When I came home the next morning the only people in my house were you and two people of another race.(I still remember what my house looked like) Or can you really not remember because you partied too much? LOL I want everyone to know that we are not racist. David has and still does give job opportunities to other races, although he doesn't have to. I grew up with black playmates and they were always in my house up north. We even had a black child live with us for a few months when I was in the 6th grade because his parents moved while we were at school. He was a great playmate and friend. This was after he and several of his friends tried to attack me with switchblade knives. Isn't it amazing how the LORD can make a bad situation good. I had a really good black friend at Decatur High School whom I will always cherish with fond memories. She was a very good friend to have. And I hate to say black friend because when I think of her I don't think of her as my black friend, she was my friend Patricia. I've also had several black friends over the years that have passed away, if not, I would still go by their houses and visit them like I did when they were here. But this thing with black and white really bothers me. I can honestly say that when I look at someone I don't see color. I try to see them for who they are. I want to know what their soul is like. This is where the problem came in with you. You seem to have always thought that it was a black and white issue with us. You seemed to always have picked some of the worst people to hang out with. You just were attracted to them for some reason. Any by saying worst, I mean those who used you for what they could get from you, those that abused you for their own satisfaction. It just broke our hearts to see you going down the wrong path. We just wanted to save you from heartache and possibly something worse. As I read your blog and saw your pics, I can see real happiness in your face. Our prayer is that you are happy and that JR is the right one. Only the LORD knows for sure. JR and anyone else that would love to come to our house is welcome anytime. To allow JR to come to our house is not a big step for us, the truth for me is that it's hard to possibly to have to give you to someone else. You know how I have always been so protective of you and Sara and your daddy. I feel so blessed to have you and them in my life that I never want to lose that. It's really hard to let go of your babies and when you have too, you want it to be with the right person and I have never seen that before with you. There was always something in my heart that was just not right with the people that you chose to be with in your life. JR seems to be different. I only know him from his pics and what you have told me so you better know that we will be going over him with a fine tooth comb when ya'll get here. LOL My only prayer for you and always has been that since I brought you into this world is that you would live as a child of GOD and trust JESUS for your happiness. This is where your true happiness will come from, not from people, places or things. True happiness and peace is what I want for my family and anyone else that comes into my life. When you experience this, your life will fall into place no matter what comes your way. I LOVE YOU MELISSA!
