When We Were Rich

I would like to thank my family for assisting me during the time of writing this book. Especially my twin brother, Chavous Hatchell for helping me remember certain events. Thank you to my husband and children who were willing to share me while I worked long hours into the night; thank you for your patience and endurance. I wrote this book as a testimony to help other individuals. We all have struggles, and think our families could have been better, or done better. We thought we should have had more, looking through the eyes of a child. If I had truly understood how rich we really were, this would have helped me see things differently! We were, and still are a loving family; we were all together as one family, there were no separations. My mother and father kept us together. We were, "Rich not poor". Usually if you have both parents in the home with no separations of children and parents, you are truly blessed. When I was a little girl, I thought I was poor. Nearly all the children in my neighborhood felt the same way. We labeled ourselves that way because of what we could see, and for what we thought we did not have; but little did we know how "Rich" we really were. Now come along with me into this book and read the written words...................... MLT
