when my parents...this is really beautiful to read. <br />when my parents were 18 they had a child that they put up for adoption. they then later got married and had me and my sister. <br />I met my other sister when I was 11 and about 5 years ago her and her husband moved to Australia from England and now live down the street from my parents. <br />There are definitely ups and down associated it, especially due to the adoption factor. But I now have another sister, a brother in law and four incredible nieces. It's strange to think that I didn't grow up with my sister, and that she didn't ever share the same surname, but there is definitely something special about family however long you have spent together.natashajeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00729297253850559376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23502762.post-72347827982731627042009-11-03T08:19:22.804+11:002009-11-03T08:19:22.804+11:00Penni this is wonderfully written and a beautiful ...Penni this is wonderfully written and a beautiful summary of many years. Wow! Your dates were spot on. Bob and I are so sad. We had hoped being 60 would be a new starting point for Carolyn who has supported John through three years battle with cancer. The time we shared together in UK was wonderful and will live in my memory. You are so right about that indefinable thing called "family love"Frangipaninoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23502762.post-73919655308267734852009-11-02T23:43:38.009+11:002009-11-02T23:43:38.009+11:00I'm so sorry Penni.
