Lynnett

Lynnett was one of the sweetest people that I know. She was about to have a baby and when her boyfriend found out he left her alone and homeless. She had long blond hair and the face of an angle.She was a free-spirt and love life to the fullest. When you read this you will agree with me that she was one of a kind.She was one of my mothers that acutualy held down a job. She worked in a coffee shop and she was on her feet all day long. She would get home before me and many times she would have dinner ready and on the table when I got home. She even helped me clean up after we ate.Every pay day Lynnett would take me out to dinner for letting her live at my house. One night after a long day at work I came home looking forward to our dinner out that evening. When I walked through the door the whole house will filled with wonderful smells. I knew that it was dinner cooking. I also knew that Lynnett was cooking it. At first I felt a little sad that we would not be having dinner out but I tryed to hide my disapointment."What smells so good," I yelled as I took off my coat."A special dinner for you," Lynnett yelled back at me.When I walked in the kitchen all I saw was fresh cut flowers all over the place. The table was set with fine china, and the best linnens. On the table was fresh cooked steaks, baked potatoes, a large green salad, and a pie for desert. I just could not believe my eyes and Lynnett stood there and was looking very pleased."This is all for you," she said. "You have been so good to me so I wanted to do something wonderful for you."She took me by the hand and we sat down to the most delicous dinner I had ever eaten. When we were done she told me that I was to sit down and relax while she did the dishes. It was one of the best times of my life and I will never forget that night as long as I live.

Jennifer

Jennifer was the second teenager that came to me preganat and homless. She stood only 5'4" with beauitiful blue eyes and long brown hair. She was the type of young lady that you could tell had a really good heart.
After speeking to her and her boyfriend they told me that both of their parents had thrown them out of their homes. They both had no where to live and they were sleeping anywhere where they could find shelter. Taking them both in was easy, and they were willing to help around the house. They were really a joy to live with and I found a new happiness living with a young unwed couple.
When it came time for the baby to be born Jennifer and Sean were thinking about adoption, but in the long run they decited to parent the child. They were both having a hard time because they were a homless family. I went to each of their partents and I pleaded their case for them. Jennifer's parents agreed to let them live with them but only after the baby was born.
Jordan Michelle was born on October 27th, l997 a healthy baby girl. Today she is nine years old and they are living as a happy family on their own. I still see them all of the time and I can not believe how much love and joy this family has brought into my life.
