4. Growing Up My parents met in high school and had four surprising healthy and beautiful daughters. My parents did not have much money, but always made us laugh. My parents would say, “there is nothing like a good laugh and a smile to fill your heart. When in doubt, call on God and He will always answer”. I am the oldest of three sisters. My three sisters reside in San Antonio, Texas. We all have different goals in life, but we all are very close. A day doesn’t go by that we don’t make each other laugh. Most importantly, we pick each other up when we fall and are there when we need each other.
