I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

Well, it has been a year since Paul and I opened our doors to foster children. We have had four children come and go from our lives, and I feel blessed to have had them for the short time we did. As sad as it was to give them up, I smile when I think of the great times we shared with them, and feel so much happiness that we were able to touch their lives for the short time they touched ours. Currently, we are the proud foster parents to fifteen month old Isaiah...he is the light of our lives!! We hope to adopt him, but we have a long road ahead of us!!! Keep our little family in your prayers!!!!I am currently finishing my Master's Degree in Counseling, and I am set to graduate in December!! We are also planning a wedding, and have less than six months to go before the big day on October 11, 2008. I am so happy and have the best family in the world. Paul and I have grown so much together over the past year, and cannot believe how far we have come within just one short year!!! Come visit us, our doors are always open, our pool is always warm, and our little boy Isaiah always has a hug waiting for you!

My Interests

Spending time with my family, who include my immediate family, my fiance, and of course my foster children!! Spending time with friends, going out, reading, writing, TAKING PICTURES!
