Most Commented Family Blogs (545)

I just got back from California where I visited my niece! I know I've said this before but it needs to be said again to underscore the importance of the all around feelings of my family.

Cecilia is her name. She was born out of wedlock to a unknown family, to me anyway, and she was taken in by my older brother and his wife. My brother always wanted a child of his own but it was never to be. But when the opportunity came to finally be a Dad with this new little bundle from heaven my brother was completely overjoyed with this beautiful little girl.

My brother was a severe critic about my being. Just like the rest of the family he always criticized me about something just like the rest of my siblings. So, I just went about my business doing what I had to do. I was blessed with a great job and a beautiful family of my own. My children were the best ever. And they still are.

That said, I never really visited my brother because of his attitude against me and also because his wife was a gossiping hag. I was never around Cecilia (I call her Ce Ce with lots of love now) and not until her Mom and Dad died. Somehow, probably because she took the first step, we had dinner one night when my daughter from Portland, Oregon visited. That was the get together that transformed my feelings towards her. I found a niece that was full of love for me and my family and was reaching out for acceptance.

Over the last 10 years or so we have grown close. I would never take the "title" of Dad away from my brother but I want her to know I am her "Dad" in love for her and her wonderful husband. This couple is a dream come true in their marriage. I truly love to see them.

I am blessed with a wonderful family of kids and grandkids and now a niece I'm proud to call "Mija" (a term of affection for a daughter).

I will see her soon again just because!!!

About 6 months ago this man, his GF and her 2 kids moved into our apartments. They made such an impression that we all became friend immediately. They were down on their luck and I suggested where they could get immediate financial and food help. They had a hard time getting the power on in the house and I ran an extension cord to their home until they were able to power up. I lent them money and as promised they reciprocated and it was ideal. The family became very popular with all the other tenants and things were happy.

Shortly after, the man, Ben, would come over and start bad mouthing his GF, Victoria, and I would tell him if things are that bad you should consider leaving her or asking her to move. Each day his complaints were the same and it became better for me to listen. Ben would go on and on about his demands of Victoria and it was she had to leave at the end of the month. Months came and went and she's still in the home. I ignored "it".

The complaints were that Victoria was cheating on him (Ben). Each day she would leave the house and come back with soiled underwear from her extra curricular activities with men and women. Ben said he found plenty of evidence and her cell phone was filled with nudies Victoria had circulated on the internet. All at Ben's word. I heard nothing, I saw nothing and said no more comments.

One day on the way to the laundromat Ben was rifling through Victoria's car. They were in the parking lot and all her possessions that she had in the car were strewn all over. I could only guess why with no particular interest in Ben's actions. I said, "Good morning" and I did my laundry. They didn't return the greeting.

Well, one night at 1 a. m. there was a loud beating on my door. Victoria and her children were at the door pleading with me to let them in. I did. There was no way I was going to let this woman stay out. I offered to call the police and she declined. She slept on the floor and her 2 kids (beautiful children) slept on my couch. I had offered my bed but she declined. In the morning she got up and went back home with the kids.

Her 2 children are well mannered kids. They are such a delight to have them around. They always greeted me with hugs and love. One day the girl said how she had told her teacher all about me. Since Ben was still peeved that I had the audacity to help Victoria and the kids he stewed over that remark. Before I knew they all stopped talking to me and the kids would walk by with their heads cast down completely ignoring me.

Yesterday the little girl was outside with her mother and while no one was looking and with her head cast down she directed her eyes up and smiles a faint smile. I was so elated. I winked at her. And quickly looked away. I am so happy the kids think well of me.

I have worried about them because I know Ben is being a tyrant with them. But so far there's no evidence of anything but not being allowed to talk to me. Physically they look fine. But I'm watching with careful eyes!!!

I hope to find a confident man who knows and understands what makes him tick after everything he has been through at this point in his life. One who has learned from it and wants to apply it to a new relationship. One who knows how to communicate and isn’t afraid to be open and honest. A sense of humor, sincerity, loyalty and being a romantic would definitely be a plus.

My expection is simple May my dear best friend recover from her sickness soon. I am so sorry for her staying in hospital these days ...

For me May this winter is not too cold in my city ...

Happy each day in 2017!

Where are you hiding, my darling?
Are you missing me, your other half?
Let's come as one to fill our hearts
To show each other that love is true.

Full of me? I've not yet been through
Waiting for the crew to sail on the ship
Keep exploring until we finish
Inspire next generation with endless stories

My biggest dream, oh you know it's family
With cozy nights with frequent smiles on face
As the home nothing can replace
Will you be my roommate for life? ??

Finally, Mom's leg was better enough to have a wonderful celebration. Never had I seen her smile all day long like that

Big big thanks to my buddies, adopted parents and siblings, neighbours, relatives and wishes, prays for making her day and obviously mine too.

Lots of flowers, wishes and smiles yet tons of requests that i should stop being too picky and get married as soon as possible to make Mom happy, thus, i had to make a promise to try to make a family within this year... very challenging task! Please give me good luck almighty lol.

Tiring happy day is over now but thanks so much life for giving me such a great Mom and all the people around. Thank You

I am a materialist girl... but my friend said only broke man and looser call girls who think about material and money as a materialist girl :)

what do you think....

It was so distrubing when you were disturbed in the sleep at night. That night our next door neighbor whose lovely teenage girl cried sadly for a long time, and also I heard loud voice of something falled down at that monent, this was not the first time happened since they rented that apartment last summer for their daughter's study.

More worse, that over here, my dad might think it was not enough noise to be made, he wanted to add more like somewhat theatrical play and he was immersed in it for a long time as well. Then over there the girl cried loud, over here dad shouted loud to "let 'them' get up and cook ..." Poor me was suddenly awaked by such mess symphony and couldn't help to be surrounded by it. I tried to stop dad cos he has a big voice, (most of the time I can,) but this time he seemed not listen to me. He said they were too lazy to get up and continued his waking 'them' up ... I laid in my bed helpless but only headache untill their sound faded in their weary at the end.

I wondered why that girl cried so aloud ? In her age she should has many happy time. Has her parents no any mercy on their only daughter crying so sad before her sleep? I do hope that girl can less cry, more laugh in her future life.

Nice weekend to you!
