Sacrifice

Having to become an adult so quickly came with a lot of sacrifice. I had to miss all my homecomings, proms and sleep overs. I had to go from 15-30 in a matter of a few days. It was hard and no one will ever understand what that's really like. I missed out on most of my teenage years. I had to stay home not only because my dad made me but because I knew he needed me. I don't hold a grudge on him because of that. I was happy to stay at home and be there for him but it was upsetting at the time. I wanted to do all those things I missed out on but looking back they're not important. My sacrifices were worth the relationship that I now have with my dad. He's my best friend and my rock.
