Who are your favorite people to be around?
My favorite people to be around what would be people who positively influence my life.

Lauren and I summer 2025 at the beach for the Huntington Beach Pacific Air Show (photo credit: AngelicaLauraPhotography) Even me being out of state for over eight years and we still managed to keep our friendship!!
She always pulls me at my dark places, and is always there for me when I need her.
My other favorite person was Sierra (CiCi) to hang out with. She had the most contagious laugh. She had the best smile in the cutest curls. She greys anatomy and Khols.
Sierra and I in 2019 in Colorado. Honestly, it’s the only picture that we have together that i can find. I actually her mom sent this to me in 2025 😇

Share one of the best gifts you’ve ever received.
Costa Rica 🇨🇷 2015
Hands down the best trip i’ve ever taken.I got to meet my birth mom, auntie, my great grandparents and some more family. That was one of the best gifts i’ve ever received.
And the one that gave it to me was my adoptive mom 🥰 she made this whole trip possible and it was such a selfless thing 💛 💓 💗. She will always be my Mami.

Write about your approach to budgeting.
Finances literally have me screaming.
I have always been bad with budgeting. I often spend way too much and leave very little on my account for emergencies.

Raine Olivia Amae
Its a name I don’t usually say outloud. Only quietly in my heart every day.
Today is your 15th heavenly birthday!
I pray strength over you.
I celebrate your birthday the same most years. A beautiful birthday card, dinner or dessert (or both!), then just you and me time.
Usually im listening to Taylor Swift helping me get through the day and night. Especially on days like today.
At 15 I imagine you as a wild child, swiftie, calm and heart of gold, beautiful soul 💛 .
Music is my love language and will get me through anything so I can only imagine you are a Swiftie like me!
“Cowboy Like Me ” always holds a specialt place in my heart. So many perspectives to see this beautiful song from.
Trigger Warning: Infant / Child Loss.
I lost my Raine Olivia Amae at 15 weeks gestation.
TIMMY HAS BEEN SUCH A HELP WITH ALL THIS GRIEF TODAY
