Girls' night out

Finally, today has arrived. My mom, my aunt, my cousin and I are having a girls' night out. The main attraction for the evening is the "Staind" concert. I can't wait. I'm hoping they'll play my favorite song "it's been awhile"....they have to, it's their biggest hit.

Anyway...it's not often we all do something together, two generationes and all, so I'm exited.
It might not be the hippest thing to do, but I love spending time with family and relatives. There is a special connection, a special kind of fun and there is always a great amount of love. Now we argue...probably more than many of you, but I mean the love which is in our hearts the whole time, no matter if it's tears, joy or madness we share. That's what's so great with family...you can be yourself, show emotions and let go...no matter how annoying or crazy you might be, you'll still be loved.

Like most families we've had our trials and rough times, but thats what makes us grow so close to eachother. I do believe our bond is tighter because of it. We overcome things together and we share the victory.

I must say I'm terribly proud of my family. And it is very important to add that we are far from perfect and have done our share of bad, sinful stuff, but it's the fact that we learn from it and fight to be better people everyday. And most of us share our faith in God which makes it a lot easier.

Thank you, Father, for my wonderful, loving family.

Now I encourage you to get together with someone in you family and really feel the love between you. It's there, you just have to look and pay extra attention, you'll notice it.
