I am here for Friends

About Me

I AM A STAY HOME MOM OF FOUR WONDERFUL CHILDREN.
BREANNA IS MY FIRST BORN AND WILL ALWAYS BE MY BABY! I AM SO PROUD OF HER SHE IS GROWING INTO A BEAUTIFUL YOUNG WOMAN AND I SEE MYSELF IN HER EVERYDAY!
COREY IS GROWING SO FAST I CAN'T BELIEVE IT, HE IS GOING TO BE GRADUATING FROM KINDERGARTEN THIS MAY LOL!! I KNOW GRADUATING FROM KINDERGARTEN!! HE IS THE SPITTING IMAGE OF HIS DADDY AND THERE IS NEVER A DULL MOMENT WITH HIM.
ETHAN HAS JUST STARTED PRESCHOOL THIS MONTH AND THE TEACHERS SAY THAT HE IS SMART AS A WHIP. ETHAN HAS AUTISM AND HE HAS COME A LONG WAY AND SINCE HIS DIAGNOSIS!
TYLER HAS REALLY COME A LONG WAY SINCE HE HAS BEEN LIVING WITH US, AND I AM REALLY PROUD OF HIM. SINCE HE STARTED HIGH SCHOOL HE HAS BEEN ON THE HONOR ROLL EVERY SEMESTER. THERE HAVE BEEN SOME BUMPS IN THE ROAD, BUT THAT IS LIFE!
I AM MARRIED TO A WONDERFUL MAN NAMED MARK HE IS MY TRUE SOUL MATE, WE HAVE BEEN TOGETHER ALMOST 11 YEARS. I CAN'T IMAGINE ONE DAY WITHOUT HIM. WE HAVE BEEN THROUGH SOME REALLY TOUGH TIMES IN THE PAST 11 YEARS, BUT WE MANAGE TO PUT THINGS BACK TOGETHER AND MOVE FORWARD. SOME PEOPLE DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW WE DO IT, OR WHY?? WE DO IT BY COMMUNICATION AND RESPECT AND LOVE! WITHOUT ANY OF THOSE THINGS THERE IS NOTHING!!
I STARTED SCHOOL TWO YEARS AGO AND I AM CURRENTLY AWAITING ACCEPTANCE INTO THE NURSING PROGRAM, I HAVE ALWAYS WANTED TO BE A NURSE AND I AM WORKING HARD TO REACH THAT GOAL. MARK AND MY KIDS HAVE BEEN VERY SUPPORTIVE IN MY DREAM, AND I AM GRATEFUL TO THEM FOR BEING THERE FOR ME, GIVING ME TIME FOR STUDYING AND GIVING ME SUPPORT WHEN I DON'T DO SO GOOD IN BIOLOGY LOL!
I AM STUCK IN THE 80'S BIG TIME, AND IF THERE ARE ANY HAIRBANDS OUT THERE THAT ARE COMING IN CONCERT YOU CAN BELIEVE I AM THERE LOL!! MY MOST FAVORITE BAND IN THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD IS DOKKEN!
WELL I GUESS THAT IS ENOUGH ABOUT ME, THANKS FOR STOPPING BY AND I LOOK FORWARD TO TALKING TO ALL OF YOU AND SHARING EVERYDAY LIFE WITH YOU ALL!!
