My name is Kellye Cathleen and I've been married to my sweetie Fred for 13 years. We have two awesomely wonderful children, Sasha (4 years old) and Nathan (2 years old.) I love my family and I love staying home to raise my kiddos. I love reading books, dancing, playing games on the PS3 or Wii (or any games really,) cooking, sewing, drinking wine, going to new places, having adventures, hiking, bicycling, boating, snow skiing and just pretty much anything that is fun. I LOVE rollercoasters! I love taking pictures of my kids but my camera sucks and I always miss the best shot...stupid shutter lag.
That's more or less me. In a nutshell. In text.
I try to live my life by this poem:
If I Had My Child to Raise Over Again
If I had my child to raise all over again,
I'd finger-paint more, and point the fingers less.
I would do less correcting and more connecting.
I'd take my eyes off my watch, and watch with my eyes.
I would care to know less and know to care more.
I'd take more hikes and fly more kites.
I'd stop playing serious, and seriously play.
I would run through more fields and gaze at more stars.
I'd do more hugging and less tugging.
I'd build self-esteem first, and the house later.
I would be firm less often, and affirm much more.
I'd teach less about the love of power,
And more about the power of love.
By Diane Loomans
A hundred years from now it will not matter what my bank account was, the sort of house I lived in, or the kind of car I drove...but the world may be different because I was important in the life of a child.
