I have a devotion mainly to St. Augustine, St. Catherine of Siena, my patron. St. Brigitta of Sweden, who I was named after and of course Our Lady.
If they have been done at our home it was before I was born or old enough to understand, our home has been blessed though. Do you mind if I ask where you are from? I'm from South Africa.

Thank you very much my friend! I'm having a wonderful day and got an amazing gift of a brand new smart phone, which I am soooo happy with!
And I also got this which is from this store here:
www.dominiquesonline.co.za/pro…
Which store is run by my elder sister whom I work for. The garland I got was brown, yellow and pink, it's stunning!

Yaay! That's cool!
I am happy with you! Those are really nice gifts. And that garland is awesome, you can now decorate your room. It is creative idea for a gift.
I didn't know you work with your sister. It must be super amazing! x3 If I would ever work with my sister, which is now only 7 years old, I would be so happy! That would be really cool.
Maybe one day.. She wants to be artist, too XD
Anywas.. Great to hear, you have a wonderful day!

There are a lot of birthdays, yes and well spaced through the year, it's a lot of fun!
So you have two siblings? I knew you had one little sister, but I didn't know there was another. Which is it, a brother or a sister?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
daniela2706 In reply to evelynmckay [2015-04-17 23:04:07 +0000 UTC]
One sister, one brother and they're both younger.
And mother's boyfriend (or whatever. Man.. We live all together in one flat for 4 years, so we are sort of family..? Let's call him just boyfriend,) has 3 children with his ex-wife, so those are for us very very distance siblings, or something like that. XD
His family lives in another part of Slovakia, so we often travel there for family events.. Actually, he has birthday today, so we'll go there next weekend, I guess..
I am sure it is a lot of fun through the year! Well, you must think about gifts every month.

evelynmckay In reply to daniela2706 [2015-04-19 16:36:01 +0000 UTC]
So you have a brother too? Cool!
I live at home with five of my siblings and my mother, my father died of cancer seven years ago.
My eldest sister is married with five children and a sixth on the way. And my one brother has moved out on his own. One of my other sisters is going to be married very soon too.
Also incase you are wondering why me and my sister have different surnames, I've got McKay and she has Pekelharing it's because McKay is not my real surname, but just one I use online, my real surname is Pekelharing.
Really Evelyn is also just a writing name, my real name is Brigitta. Evelyn McKay is just the user name I adopted as a writer.
So in short I write as Evelyn McKay, but my real name is Brigitta Pekelharing.

Well, I understand. But I can't believe, I didn't noticed your real name! Oh, I am so nerd.. You have it written on you page!! Gawhmmfhff
But, when we don't count, me as totally unobservant person, I knew that's not your real name! XD Really... Nah, I will call you Brigitta, next time. Sorry, for being oblivious. By the way, Brigitta is beautiful name and I just didn't call you like that almost for a year! Oh my God, that's so awkward.. XD
Fine, back to the theme. I am still impressed, how huge family you have! I don't know, if it is common in your country,or whatever.. I've never known anyone with so excented family.
Five children, sixth on a way.. Well, you will be aunt for so many children.. Not like you are not now.. But you know.
That's sweet.
Oh and I am sorry for your father..
Well, there is not so much to know about my family, in contrast with yours. We are much smaller.
My parents are divorced, as you could think out and my father does not have a girlfriend or new wife, yet.
My siblings still can't have any children, (that would be bad so bad..) so I guess that's it.
My mom was only one children from her parents, while father has one sister. And I have 2 cousins.
But this is average in our country. Like: 2-3 children.
Anyways, I am really happy to know so much about you!
That's nice.

Don't worry, you are not unobservant, I only put my name on my name on my page yesterday, so you didn't miss it before.
So really I choose to be called Evelyn and I don't mind that name or Brigitta, since I use the name Evelyn as an author and sign myself with that name when online. Thanks, I'm glad you like my name, it's Swedish actually.
I do certainly have a lot of nieces and nephews, they are great kids and my one niece is very keen on Frozen and since I gave her some extra Frozen collector cards of mine I became a favourite with her.
Do you find it hard that your parents are divorced, if you don't mind me asking? Do you get to see your father quite often?
Actually our large family is not really the normal down here either, it is certainly out of the common way.

daniela2706 In reply to evelynmckay [2015-04-21 12:40:11 +0000 UTC]
Oh, great then. I really thought I missed it..
Ok, I will call you Evelyn, as you wish. It's just nice to know your real name.
Well, so now I don't mind about that, they are divorced. It's been about 4 years and now I couldn't imagine how it would be if they stayed together.
It was complicated between them and my mom used to cry because of him, so it is better now.
I'll explain:
When my sister, 3th baby was on a way, my father wasn't at home usually. He was somewhere with his friends and they meant for him probably more than family, what was 2 children and pregnant wife. So my mom took his place and she did all works around house.
She never lied to us and she always told us the whole truth, while he didn't say anything about situation in that time. What was wrong. He was like: Nah, it is everything ok, your mum acts too excessively.
Or like: Is it wrong to be with friends?!
Well, it is when you are with them more than everyone expects from father. Hell, you weren't here even at night, dad! I don't think this is just being with your friends!
I remember that all.
My mom told me, that only I was born to the family, where was everything ok. Where parents didn't have so many arguments and you know.. She meant normal family. Brother and sis, weren't so lucky with this.
And one evening, our mom told us that they divorced yesterday. And father wasn't at home, too, when she told us.. So.. It was ussual at that time.
We moved from him and now we live in second tenement.
I can see him everyday, I want. After school or in the weekend.. But we are with mom every second weekend. BUT that's not the same every time, because father sometimes say, he doesn't have money this time, or he has to work..
So sometimes we are with mom 2 weekends in a row. Sometimes 3.
And we always sleep in the "mom-flat" (i don't know how to call that) XD
So, this is how we live.
He is artist and he has no habits of regularity.. In the flat, he lives is always mess and uncleaned. And he doesn't give money to our mother for us. I mean, he does but not in the time. Or he give less money.
BUT we still love him, of course. Even he is not perfect father.. Well, we have only one father, right?
So, my parents are divorced, my sister of my father is divorced nd boyfriend of my mother is divorced, too.
Now, it is like more families are with divorced parents, than complete families, in our country.
Yeah... But we can live with it. After all, it is better now for mother, so better for us. She's much happier now.
(So-many-words)
I hope it is understand..ing?? XD

Don't worry, I understood all of it.
I'm sorry you had to go through what you did, it must be hard to see your mother unhappy. It's good however that you still get to see both parents, cause you are right, you only have one father and one mother too!
Thanks for sharing your story with me.
Oh and you may call me Evelyn or Brigitta, I really don't mind, whichever you prefer to use!

Thank you.
I will alternate that. XD
Well, now it is great. I'd like to see them both, but my father is somewhere, I don't know where I haven't seen him for a week.
He is restorer and he always work on the buildings or statues.. :/
One mother, one father, so that's why we have to love them and appreciate them.
I liked to share it with you. Sometimes I just need to say it to someone, because with my friends at school I don't usually talk about divorced parents. So that means, thank you for being that one who patiently read this
