Hello Hello!

Allow me to introduce myself! I am Dymend, mother of 5, wife of 1, daughter of 4, sister to 6, auntie to 2, and friend to everyone!
My children are my everything! Everything that i do, is all for them. I do not do anything in this world without thinking about my children first. Now it wasnt always that way, there was a time i was young, dumb, and didnt know this from that but swore i did. But the time came that i had to grow up. And i want to send a special thanks to my mother, my aunts, and my husband for helping me do that. Raeshawn, Aaliyah, Jaedyn, Jermaine Jr, and Javonte. My babies.

My husband and I were meant to be together. We know everything about eachother, and the funny thing is, we have crossed paths before just never knew it! The night I met him, i knew there was something special about him. About a month into our relationship we exchanged the "i love you's" We were instantly drawn to eachother, connected in a way that i still to this day cannot comprehend much less explain. Something about him.. And funny thing is, I had recently gotten out of a messed up relationship, that really hurt bad when it came to an end. So i told myself, I will not fall in love with this guy. I will not let my guard down. But somehow, no matter how hard i tried, i couldnt help falling in love with him. And he fell in love just as quick. I was the bonnie to his clyde, the sun to his moon, and the up to his down all at the same time, as was he to mine. We were married on November 11th, 2005. We have our ups and downs, but no matter what i know his love is unconditional, for me and my kids, and i couldnt ask for anything more.

My mommy. I love her more than any word could ever describe. She has been through so much, raising me, and through her own life difficulties. Growing up she was a drunk, and later i found out she was on drugs as well, but i only knew about the drinking at the time. I hated her in so many ways for the responsabilities i had to help with my brothers, to be there to wipe the tears from her eyes when she had a drunk emotional outburst, to only know the smell of beer on her breathe. I blamed her for me getting raped, because I felt she should have prevented it. But with time i forgave her, and now know it wasnt her fault, but back then I hated her for it. After giving birth to my first child at 17, he was a couple weeks old, and she came in the house drunk as hell without any pants on (which we all laugh about now but it wasnt funny then) and tried to pick up my 6 week old son. I told her that if she ever touched my son again while she was drunk she would never see him again. After a lot of drama, she went into rehab shortly after, and has been clean ever since. And ever since, she has been the glue holding me together. I am so proud of her for getting clean, and getting her life together, and i dont tell her enough how much i appreciate her. She has been through so much, not only with me but with her crappy relationships with men, with my brothers, with life in general, and somehow she still manages to be a mother to me and a grandmother to my kids and keep her life in order. She is a successful business woman, she own 2 business's, Mary Kay and The Ravens Nest Wellness Center, while working part time at a successful ad agency. She manages to do all that and still make time to take me food shopping, drive me around when im stuck, and drop everything if i really need her. And for that, i love her so much. And i dont tell her enough. So if your reading this mommy, I love you so much, and im so sorry that i dont tell you enough.

Thats enough for now. I will tell you all about my aunts and the rest of my family and life later or tomorrow. My fingers are cramping lol.
