What is family to you? If someone asks you to define family in your own words what would you say? Everyone’s definition of family may be different. To some, it’s their parents and siblings. Those that are fortunate enough to have the love and support of family sometimes takes it for granted. There's a saying that you never know the value of something till you lose it. Life is too short, and every moment is a moment to create lasting memories that will be with you forever. There’s a special family that is beyond DNA. It’s a type of family that you can truly count on knowing that they will tell you the truth even when the truth is something that you don’t want to hear. This type of family is a friendship you build with someone that transcends blood. My mom used to say the first thought is an idea, the second thought is your decision to make.
