My Hometown

A look back in time of a family of eight children growing up in a small hometown that they have never forgotten. A hometown that will always be a part of who they are and what they have become. It's a memory that they will always cherish and be proud of. It's a time they have left behind. A memory that will always be a part of who they are. Anyone without a hometown is welcomed to share in being part of mine. I want you to feel the sense of familiarity, competency, and comfort that a large family will share their most inner feelings with you and make you feel part of them. You will become part of the story that will take you on a journey. An account of real events that shares with you birth, sadness, death of a brother, happiness, and togetherness. A compelling story that at times will anger you, surprise you, and make you laugh. But it's a story that each one of us eight children lived, and always look back on. The ending will be difficult to predict, surprise you, and comfort your thoughts. Life does not know what your journey will be. Accept each day and honor its beginning and end.
