I love to observe and experience miracles unfolding - children growing, flowers blooming, hurts healing, and most of all... the melting of fears to experience love. I am a real estate broker - I love houses - all kinds of houses! And while the changing market can be so joyous for some, and devestating for others, my clients are real people who have a history that has brought them to me. I am also a mom - my amazing 22-year old triplets are the loves of my life and my greatest teachers. They are my angel babies and the guardian angels of my soul, as I am of theirs until they have children of their own.... I believe in the perfection of the universe and that we all have the power to choose our own realities. I believe that children need good parents, that parents need each other, that everyone needs friends, that siblings are different on purpose, that smart people can become stupid and that everyone can learn something, that life can be cruel if we believe in cruelty, that life can be kind if we believe in kindness, that mean people suck but deserve to be loved, educated, and given a chance to heal if we expect them to change, that serial victims are mean people too, that the devil doesn't need anymore advocates, but abused and neglected children do, that words & actions have limitations and intimacy is most often found in soft silences, that God doesn't make bad children.... and that... Miracles are everywhere just waiting to be discovered.

My Interests

Concerts, live music in cozy clubs, brain physiology in regard to relationship dynamics / addiction / education / self esteem / behavior / creativity, metaphysics, children (young and old), growing flowers and organic fruit & veggies, slow dancing with someone special, yoga, weights, beautiful skies, a glass of wine with a best friend, houses - all kinds of houses, learning to play the saxaphone, spa getaways, challenges that aren't too big or too small, decorating & landscaping, learning something new every day.... good times with friends, and especially my children.

What color is your soul painted?
Purple
Your soul is painted the color purple, which embodies the characteristics of sensuality, spirituality, creativity, wealth, royalty, nobility, mystery, enlightenment, arrogance, gaudiness, mourning, confusion, pride, delicacy, power, meditation, religion, and ambition. Purple falls under the element of Earth, and was once a European symbol of royalty; today it symbolizes the divine.
