About Me

I love Jesus with all my heart and it is my goal to strive to be more like him with each passing day. I love living a life that is pleasing to him and I LOVE being in a place where I can share God's love and truth with so many who are unaware of it. I love my amazing husband Joel who I have been married to since June 19, 2005 and who I fall more in love with every day. My daughter Faith Anglina Mei Gillman is my pride and joy... she is a newbie as she was born on January 13, 2008. I love my family, my sisters are my best friends and my parents are my heroes - my brothers are great too. Speaking of friends, I love them too... all of them, they are amazing and a blessing. I love eating... a lot... any kind of food but mainly pasta. I love chocolate. I love dogs. I love roller coasters. I love the smell of fresh cut grass and the smell of fresh rain. I love cuddling and hugging. I love laughing till I cry and making other people laugh as well. I love loud music and I love worship. I love running and I love love love taking naps. I love dreaming and I love getting to know people and their story and what they enjoy. I love traveling and I love long flights in Business class. I love Thailand. I love ice cream and I love to get to know new people. I love the beach and I love my rainbow sandals. I love having my back scratched and getting massages and I love having my hair played with as well as playing with others hair. I love doodling and I love watching the sunset. I love life and I love living life and I love that I have no idea what tomorrow holds and I love that there is a God who loves me more than I could ever love myself or love anyone else!
