I have many cousins, and some sisters and brothers with kiddos. I’m content being an Auntie and now a Lola to my grand-nieces and grand-nephews. Family means a lot to me. And they will always be in my life. I will dote on my grands now and assist and adore my own nieces and nephews. I was considering adopting to name certain adoptees after my cousins who already die, but my nieces and nephews and their brothers and sisters can name their kiddos in honor of our fallen and some ‘heroes.’
I don’t want a boyfriend, husband, nor lover because I am selfish, conceited, self-absorbed and dislike having to consider others in my personal life. They are so damn wanty and needy. Please get a dog.
I’m glad Earl Temp Reeves is my brother. And then Keanus and Johns are my cousins. I was going to be a Marine. And then part of Langley, Quantico, and Pentagon. Then considered the UN and foreign service. Fortunately, I’m still a Sister in the Dominican and Grenadine Order. And always, a Virgin Princess Royal of Visayas.
I may not have that kind of love and a husband, but I have family that adores me.
I also have my self-respect.
And I am actually Academy.
