Where I'm From

I am from baby dolls, thrilling rides, and friends til the end.
I am from the house in the country that feels like the city.
I am from strawberries, puppy tails, and kitty whiskers.
I am from the coal miners and redheads, from the Weavers and the Millers, and a loving family who  has and will always be there.
I am from the queen of lateness and a family of perfectionists.
From days spent in the sunshine and late nights with the best of friends.
I am from a singin', dancin', and Holy rollin' Christian church.
I am from German and English heritage, born and raised in the rolling hills of West Virginia.
The smell of potato soup, chicken pot pie, and fudge filling the kitchen remind me of cold, winter nights.
From my dad who has always protected me, my mom who I have always aspired to be like, my brother who has always armed me with great advice, and my sister who has always comforted me.
I am from life, love, and laughter.
