About Me




Layout by:

My Interests

My passions are writing and speaking. Visit my websites-- silentgrief.com and clarahinton.com to get to know me more!

I'd like to meet:

First on my list of people to meet is Oprah . I have admired her from the very first time I saw her, and I will not settle for less than meeting her face-to-face. Just seeing her face gives me a special inspiration and energy!

Maya Angelou is second on my list of people to meet. I love her writing and her strength. She gives me a sense of womanhood and hope with every word that comes from her heart, mind, and soul.

I long for the day when I can meet all of my SilentGrief.com friends . These parents are true heroes in every sense of the word. I love each one with all of my heart!

Authors and speakers are also on the top of my list of people I want to meet. I want to talk with friends who share common interests and goals with me. I get excited just thinking about that!

Truthfully, I love all people of all ages, and I've never met a boring, uninteresting person yet. Everybody has a special story to tell and I love to learn from others So, come on over to my place and let's get to know one another!

Heroes:

My heroes are all those people who keep on keeping on when sanity tells you to give up. Those who persevere under hard circumstances are my inspiration.

To every family who has ever felt the pain of loss and still can find a smile...I love you!

Me - Italiano

Before I continue on with the blogs about my kids, I thought it would be good to fill you in a bit on me.  This one's going to be the most difficult because once you get married and have kids it'...

Aaay, I'm Italian!

Mike was born with his Italian blood running fast!  I don't think he was ever still for more than 30 seconds at a time, and he was by far the most creative of all of the kids.  By creat...

  I think it will be fun for me to post a little bit of "newsy" stuff about each one of my eleven kids.  Acutally, I delivered 12, and I'll even talk about "Number 12" at the prope...
