What #Family Really Means and what my #love for #JennieBonita means

What Family Really Means FaceBook



Family isn’t about showing up when it suits you. It isn’t about dipping in and out when the spotlight is on. Family is about being there, every day, every night, every moment, even when nobody sees it, even when nobody claps for it.

For me and Jennie, that’s what it always was.

People can say what they want, twist things, rewrite timelines, pretend they were present… but the truth doesn’t bend. The truth is lived, in memories. And the truth is this: we were there. Every single day.

I grew with those kids. One was barely two, the two twin boys were still tiny at five. I was there through the milestones, the tears, the laughs, the routines, the school days, the school runs with Jennie, the nights when things were tough, the mornings when things needed doing. I didn’t step in for show, I stepped in because that’s what you do when you love someone and their family becomes your family.

Jennie was the same. She was 100% committed to her family circle. Always. She didn’t do half-measures. Jen didn’t disappear. Jenne didn’t pick and choose. Jen showed up, we showed up consistently in all them years, quietly, lovingly. That’s who we were.

And that’s why all this strange stuff happening online, the admin changes, the removals, the dates that don’t make sense, it hits differently. Because I know what’s real. I know what actually happened in our home, in our life, in our family. I know who was there, and who wasn’t, I know whose been steeling all our stuff over the years, I know whose been hacking us... Only we remained silent and walked all over by these manipulative gangs.

When I look back at the timeline 2018- 2020, 2022 - all those odd changes on her Facebook when these peolpe were in our home, things that don’t line up with reality… It tells me something isn’t right. And I’ve got the screenshots, the evidence, the dates. I’m not guessing. I’m not imagining. 

But this blog isn’t about pointing fingers. It’s about setting the record straight on what family means.

Family means checking in every day.
Family means making sure the kids are okay.
Family means being present even when nobody thanks you.
Family means loyalty, not convenience.
Family means showing up, not disappearing and reappearing when it suits the narrative.

And through everything, the chaos, the grief, the confusion, one thing has never changed:

I was there and still am. Jennie was there and now lives inside me and the boys. We were the constants.

And that’s what this story will always come back to.

I wish you all happy peaceful healing.

For every one who has read my post will know I have never interviewed any authors yet, which is crazy considering I know thousands of authors, but for some time now I have been giving it some thought and like my work I wanted these interviews to be different and unique. I want them each to have their own individuality to match the author's personality who do participate. I want to do an interview that put the author's mind to the test and also to show the readers how awesome their creative minds actually are when put on the spot.. This is a little more than just an interview, with great stories and fun questions, this is one blogspot that should hit the right spot...        My first victim is the lovely awesome author Helle Soe Gade. Hi Helle, thank you for taking part in this blog challenge, I see you have brought an axe with you, I do hope you don't have to use it...  Now you are here armed and dangerous can you tell us...

Wishing everyone a wonderful Christmas and a fantastic new year.

This is a little Christmas message for all my friends and the people out there who have shown their support this year at a time when I have really needed it!  It's amazing how many people think they know you, but really do they know you? Do they know when your hurting or when you feel let down and when your feeling alone? We all go through life feeling that pain from time to time and some of us hide it well. We are the kind of people that are to proud to ask for help, we are strong on the outside and a world of worry on the inside, we wont speak out as we feel we won't be heard, we face the world with a smile, holding back the pain, it make's us strong people but also foolish ones for not reaching out ... You're not alone! We all have our own problems and each one is different or similar or in some case's the same!  I have learnt with the right friends and support around you then you're not alone! You're only alone if you let that happen! Don't let ...
