About Me

Well, I'm a Christian, a wife, a mother, a vocalist, a pianist and an avid reader. I attend Grace Baptist Church in Essex where my church family holds a special place in my heart. Although the hustle and bustle of daily life seems to consume me most of the time, it's nice to know that I have a church family that continually prays for my family and I. I've been married to my husband Chris for 5 years who, by the way is an excellent cellist and not a bad hockey player;) We met on a blind date. Around our first year anniversary, we became the proud parents of TWO little princesses, Selah and Raya. Although it was a challenge at the beginning, we are finally finding our groove. The twins turned four in October and are two of the cutest and talented kids arounds! They are almost fluent in French and love to recite Psalms 150. They performed in their first piano recital at the age of 2 and we hope to start them in violin sometime this year! In my free time, I sing with the Windsor Classic Chorale and on occasion with the Windsor Symphony. I also run a piano studio of about 60 students and direct a High School choir. I love what I do and feel blessed and honoured that i was given such wonderful opportunities. I'm also a member a a great reading group that excites the English Major in me and allows me to dabble in one of my passions, literature.Hot Premade Layouts - Music Bands - Animals - Movies I edited my profile at HotPremadeLayouts.com . check out these Myspace Layouts!
