About Me

I am a Christian before all other things. I love being with my family. We do everything together. My husband and kids are precious to me. I am a VERY lucky person to have such a wonderful family. I love to read, fantasy mostly. I am interested in many things: science, history, culture, mythology, literature, mechanics, football, art, cooking, baking. I LOVE to learn new things! I consider myself a nice person, and I try to be open minded and honest.The slide show below features the art of Stephanie Pui-Mun Law at shadowscapes.com ©Stephanie Pui-Mun Law.I also support Robert Fanney.
