Elizabeth,

Thank you so much!! It’s so nice to hear that there are more bi-racial families besides mine and Barack Obama’s;-)

Family is complicated, even more so when you’re trying to write about them. So your kind words and encouragement mean a lot.

Please keep readin’…
Sarah

I love hearing story’s with so much warmth and feeling to them.
All my kids are biracial and my father is biracial, Keep loving who you are because you have a great talent for writing.

I truly found your take on the biracial issue funny and laced with insight. You are truly wonderful and unique. Those pics are a trip! Tell the goldenchild I heard his guitar work recently with his band and thought it was GREAT. Say hello and tell everyone I love and miss them. Lots of love, M

OK, I know this is supposed to be about you and everything .. but can we talk about my issues for a moment. In looking at the photo, it took me five full minutes to realize that the person on the couch who I thought was our older brother, was actually me!! Immediately, memories of the gym teacher at St. Catherine’s in third grade getting me confused with the little Puerto Rican boy Hector came flooding back to me. The hell with the bi-racial thing — let’s talk about my gender-confusion issues!! Now back to you … excellent writing as always. Love your older sister, “Hector”

all I know is that you are Sarah Jackson.
I knew you since you were a grass hopper.
you were always a wonderful person.

Now I find out that you are smart, too and I see from the pictures you enclose that you are beautiful as well.

Your couch does not count. nor does mom/dad.
at your age now it is only about YOU.

YOU are what you are. Empty your mind. Let the stuff from the past just whirl around you. YOU stay calm and find YOUR center. Find the now.

Peace

Hans

Sarah, what can I say except that you are brilliant and I am not biased. You will do wonderful things in your life time, of that I am sure, because not only do you have talent but a good heart.
Some day you and Andrew need to visit. From the day I met Andrew, he became a very important member of our family. I will make him seven-layer cookies and you can make your special brownies(of course, Twinkles will gladly help you).
Love you much xoxo

While I was slaving over a hot kitchen table looking for these photos for you,I must’ve went through about a hundred that I’ve never seen before.And It made me realize that the Jackson’s are the infinite universe. We should never feel alone,because you can look FOREVERRRRR.
