Well, let's see....I have two older brothers, John William and James Kirkland, and, two step brothers, Rob and Allen. My parents, William Kirkland, and Elizabeth Marie, divorced when I was about five and my mother remarried about a year and a half later, to my step dad, Kenneth Ronald. I lived with my mom and step dad and my brothers stayed with my dad. My dad died in a car accident when I was 9, and, my brothers had to move in with us. My step brothers are each married, Rob to Marge and Allen to Sarah. Robyn is my oldest niece and will be 21 this year. She's Rob's daughter. Gaby is Allen's, and, she is young, I think four. Can't remember for sure! I've only met her once. My brother James can't have children because he was sick with leukemia for five years of his life (diagnosed at five), but, is with a girl that he's been with for about four years now. John makes up for both James and me. :) He's never been married, and, has three children, Amber and Andrew are incredible and I see them when I get to go to South Carolina. Austin is their half brother and I've never actually met him. He's beautiful, though. Everyone mentioned in this post, except for my brothers and Austin, live in South Carolina. My brothers and I live in Texas, and, Austin is in Minnesota. And, I have one grandparent left, and, it's my mother's father. He lives in Alabama and his name is Buddy. :) I'm still also pretty close to my ex husband's family. His parents are Don and Dorothy. And, their children, from oldest to youngest are....Donella (who died in the summer of 2001), Darla and Dana (my ex). Yes, they're all "d"s! Donella had two sons, Derek and Daniel. And, Darla had Danielle, Brandy, and, Lucas. And, her husband has a daughter named Alaina. I see them all a few times a month. But, Danielle is my best friend. She's just turned 19, but, she's the shiznit. :) Anyway, I don't have that many pictures online, but, I'd like to add pictures of my family to this or another thread at some point. I think this thread is a good idea. Although, I doubt anyone will read my post! It's too long! :)
