About Me

I will have been married for 22 years (in June) to the love of my life, Mark. I have 5 great kids that I am really proud of: Sarah, a Soph. in college, Scott a Jr. in High School, Nathan is a 7th grader, Aaron will begin homeschools as a 6th grader and Benjamin is 5 and has the "honor" of staying at home with me. I'm an avid reader and love messing around on the computer. I know God has more in store for me as my kids are growing and am looking forward to the "next step" that only He knows for now. This layout was handmade with love by the folks at My space or yours? Go get one!

My Interests

I love reading, playing games on the computer, cooking (just not washing!)and sleeping. I like taking walks with my kids and vacations in Ruidoso (or anywhere else cool), staying in hotels with maids to do the dirty work ...or better yet, having a maid for my house, now, THAT would really interest me!

I'd like to meet:

Esther in the Bible, as well as Sarah and many other Biblical personalities

Music:

Praise and Worship: I like peaceful, calming music ...Dennis Jernigan, Kathryn Scott, Michael W. Smith,....

Movies:

Pride and Prejudice, One Night With the King, The Nativity, The Sin Eater. Sabrina (the old one is better),The Quiet Man, Love Affair, My Big Fat Greek Wedding (some of it looks a little too familar), Facing the Giants - is pretty good! (Mark's cousin is a nurse in the movie!) Mainly I see kid shows...Cars, Toy Story, Curious George. The price of being a mom!

Television:

Anyone remember the short lived show, State of Grace? Everybody Loves Raymond, Home Improvement, Trading Spaces. We don't have cable TV anymore - but I liked watching 24 as well as Alias- (just wish they were cleaner!) Favorite station: HGTV

Books:

It is hard for me to put a book down - even if I don't like it, it's hard for me not to finish it. I love to read!!! Mostly I read Christian fiction. I like to read books by Ted Dekker, some of Frank Peretti's, Francine Rivers, Karen Kingsbury, Kristin Billerbeck,and Stormie O'Martin

Heroes:

My dad - he was such a patient man! Sarah in the Bible (how hard it must have been to have your husband deny you were his wife - more than once! Plus, I kind of get that laughter when you find out you're pregnant thing...) Esther - for just being available "for such a time as this", and David's ability to worship uninhibitedly.

My Blog

Back to School

Was it just yesterday that I heard the Dr. say "it's a girl!" and I looked over to  reach for and lovingly inspect the beautiful little being that would transform my life - my "reward" for months...

Christmas blog

I was reading in Luke 1 this morning.... I read where Zachariah had trouble believing that Elizabeth would have a baby and asked Gabriel for sign to know for sure that what he'd heard was true.  ...

Engraved!

I got an e-mail today that reminded me of something God showed me when Daddy had a stroke.  He had gotten to the point that he couldn't even remember our names.  God gave me the following ve...
