She was very close to her older brother, may he rest in peace, who always came to her rescue when she was a little girl dying of hunger. She grew up as a quiet little girl. She wasn't so much of a people person, but that was only because she was trained that way that people were out to get her or trained to always walk with her head down. In middle school she had very few friends, but also had some evil one's also that weren't her friends. They didn't want to sit by her. It was even the bad odor because she was living in the basement half her life or it was the deep bloody open wounds that turned people out. the bald head she used to get like a boy. It was to the point people was calling her the boy girl in school as soon as she entered the cafeteria. everybody pointing fingers saying look at the boy girl. You wonder why she grew up with depression, anxiety, and post-traumatic stress disorder. When she was growing up she was into braiding hair and cleaning. She grew up doing housekeeping because that's what she always had to do when she was a little girl being everyone's slave of course. When she grew up she was very good at it and took multiple jobs doing custodian, janitor, and housekeeping and lead worker just training people on the Job.

even got herself multiple cleaning certificates

and money of course because she was that good at it. She was also into interior design and decorating. It didn't matter where she was living and who was coming over to her house people would always compliment her on her skills. That's when she went to school for interior design ,but never finished because life got in the way.being a mother of seven kids they needed lots of attention and Love couldn't even imagine and dealing with a full house of kids can't focus on your life. the way she had to get up from her studies every 5 to 10 minutes when you're kids said M'a at the end of the day she couldn't even focus on her school studies even when they went to sleep because taking care of a household with seven kids it will make you exhausted so she decided to focus on them more and put her career behind her. Lastly, as of today she is still cleaning up as a custodian. her kid's still call her Ma lol well, that's never going nowhere and her accomplishment is writing her first book the basement of child abuse. She's in the process of finishing her second book called "How i became a mother of seven" along with her third book. The love you thought you had. I Love the Way you lied. to be continued.
