180

After January 28th, 2013 I thought I would never be happy again.  That is the day my dad passed away.  For weeks all my mom would do was sleep but who could blame her, all I wanted to do was make her happy again.  There were not many conversations going on around my house, we all sort of kept to ourselves but recently it has seemed like my life has done a 180.  I have started going out with a girl that I have had the biggest crush on since Freshmen year.  I never thought of myself ever going on a date with this girl except in my dreams.  In February I figured how could things get any worse so I decided to ask her out on Valentines day and to my surprise she said yes.  Ever since then we have been talking non stop and going out every weekend. It feels great.  Not only are things going great with my high school crush but my sisters birthday is tomorrow and the family is going out to dinner together.  I think its going to be a happy event and I cant wait to go out with everyone.  My mother has also returned to her normal self and she has her life back together yet again.  I still think about my dad everyday but it feels good thinking that my family is beginning to become happy once again.
