My relationship with my Dad over the years has been a tough one. I actually didn't meet him until I was 15. (Unless you count me at like 6 mos old.) Even after we met our relationship was rocky at best. We had a lot of old pain to get over.
as of November 2007 I hadn't spoken to my Dad in about 7 years. I walked into a job interview for a temp agency I was working for and there he was! Turned out he was the companies maintenance man for the past ten years. So we had an awkward hello, and then spent that weekend getting caught up.
Now we are pretty tight. I have an 8 year old sister that looks just like me and is completely my mini-me. She acts the same, loves crafts, and loves dinner most of all! It's so funny, since she never really knew me. I guess that goes to proove nature over nurture in this case.
Anyhoo, I got this bizarre email from my father today. Just thought I'd share a little insight into my family!

Hey, we must be related 'cause that looks a lot like my family!
Glad you are able to reunite with your Dad and sister!
What fun looking at your BLOG!
So....I'm guessing whatever weirdness your father brings into your life, its worth it to know your little sister.
Great blog....very interesting!
That's so sweet and your baby sister is one lucky chick to have you as a big sister!
What a great story! I'm very happy for you!
