My nieces and brother.
I met my nieces for the first time a couple days before my dad's funeral (this past spring)...and reunited with my kid brother. I'm so incredibly proud of the wonderful, responsible, family man he has grown up to be. He's really overcome some serious, horrible inherited traits, his terrible, heart-breaking, abusive childhood, and has broken the cycle. His dedication to his family, especially his children, touched my heart and gave me hope.

Before I met my nieces, I had closed my heart for a long time...I didn't want anyone near my heart or in my life (I was long burned out of being responsible for someone else). My beautiful, smart, sassy nieces have stolen my heart and saved my life in more ways than I can describe.

Dad may not have been a father to me and my brother (he certainly was never there for us) which resulted in over 30 years separated from my brother; but in the end, he - and certain other fate related events - reunited us and gave me the opportunity to meet my family for the first time. Even though we are currently separated by many miles, we are finally a family. My nieces are my everything...and the little girls that I always dreamed of having. I never ever thought I would hear "I love you" from a close family member...it touches me deeply every time I end a conversation with my brother and he always says "I Love You Sis".

It melts my heart to feel the unconditional love and acceptance that my nieces and brother have for me; and I for them. And to hear their laughter and see hope in their eyes. Things that have filled a long empty spot in me.

If fate had not put me where I was last spring, I would have never met them. And in turn, they would have never saved my life.

I hope they know how special they are?
