karma....

Over the past years, all 24.5 of them, of my life.. my siblings have given me my fair share of.. how do you say it... 'grief'.. for my insane amount of shortcomings and screw-ups... and im not denying the amount of those at all..
But Jarret, although he is extremely handsome, smart, resourceful, honest, funny, and reliable; can be some what of a meanie... For years i was nicknamed 'stretch' (well not was, because to this day he still calls me that), after the toy stretch armstrong. Jarret loved to make fun of my awkward long legs. he also used to ask me if my legs whistled in the wind. he also loves to bring up the fact that its taking me just a shade over a decade to graduate from college... the fact that i am in fact the worst when it comes to driving and taking care of my vehicles... the list could go on and on and on...

And my sister... She has been nothing but good to me for as long as i can remember... i really have nothing against her besides the fact she did her share of hell-raisin' and never got in trouble for it. its arguable that she was grandpa deans favorite.. and she also got an angel of a first born, Porter... a baby that was good as gold, probably the only reason i made i through two kids all those years.. so lets just say she needs a little Karma just 'cause...

So... when my first niece, Miss Abigail (who from the age of 2 was known as my Frenemy) came along, i had one goal in mind.. 'how can i get jarret back?'
well, much to my dismay, my frenemy is much too smart. she knows when im trying to get her to do something naughty and is quite apt to do exactly the opposite... don't get me wrong, im not disappointed, i love this little girl.. but she has her own agendas when it comes to her father, so she has no interest in mine... and he cant do much about it because, she is in fact, a girl... she knows what she can get away with.. and i cant forget to mention that i truly hope my frenemy has the exact same voice she does now, clear until she is 18 years old... but worry not.. my trusty sister in law provided me with another opportunity...
which brings us along to Miss Alli (formerly known as Pineapple Hair, she's outgrown that crazy hair do and has a little mullet/lopsided piggies depending on the day hair do, which is much harder to nickname). im starting to think this one may be come to known as Jami Jr. (:
miss Alli, is stubborn, moody, never listens, always gets what she wants, blond haired blue eyed, mischievous, and busy! like her sister, she likes to pick and choose what day she is my friend, but lucky for me she can be bribed... candy can get miss alli to do about whatever i want her to. (enter evil tee hee hee) she is young this one... but she shows much promise to fulfill all my devious plans to drive my brother insane....



and last but not least, Red. I don't even have to TRY with this one... he already confirms whenever asked who his favorite is, ME! yeah.. thats right.. Jami... this one doesn't even have to try... hes the most polite, and sweet lil' one around.. but don't let his please and thank-you's fool you.. he is NAUGHTY... he karate kicks your legs, drop kicks balls in the house, yells when he wants something, cries when hes not gettin his way, pee's only outside if its convenient for him, fights like hes one of the big boys and give his mom hell... and i LOVE him... he of course is nothing but an Angel for me... but when his mom is around... he makes me so proud....
now, don't get me wrong there is an agenda for ALL of my siblings with ALL of my nieces and nephews... and im sure karma will come right back at me... but lucky for me Drey already does that on his own, he doesn't need much help...

ok, i guess i can't forget to say how much i really do appreciate all my siblings... they all literally helped raise me to be my awesome self so i guess i'd better give credit where its due....

i love them and appreciate them more than they know... they have helped me through everything to get where i want to be.
