About Me

Ya know its strange how I find that the about me section changes even at 28 Im still changing. Whether it be home or friends work or relationships. I never thought it would be this way. Though I am the person making many of those changes some I have no control over. I have some regrets, but the good news is I have changed so I wont have them again. Thank God! I had alot of fears growing up, but their gone now. I love my family and I know that more now than ever and I hope it continues to get even greater. We,ve had a lot of struggle over the years. And things are getting better and my children are wonderful. Davina my 9 year old amazes me. I used to whisper in her ear that she was the light. And she is shining brighter than ever. Soon she will be taking a test to be in the gifted program at her school. I cant believe how well she can draw. Im still doing stick figures. Jacob my boy is the smartest six year old I have ever seen. He is far ahead of his class. Ever since I first held him Ive known he will accomplish great things in his life if he chooses to. Hailey ( little miss) may be the runt but she is strong in every way. Her art is amazing for her age. She never sees a down side to things and is always laughing. She is a lot like her mother. She has no fear and though it scares me I have the up most confidence in her. And though they all have their own great qualities. Collectively they make me feel my age. Just recently I decided that I would challenge my kids by taking them on a hike. Honestly I wasn't sure if they would all make it out walking. But to my amazement they hardly even whined and after hiking 13-14 miles I was the one limping out of there. I dont know any other 5, 6, and 9 year olds that can do that.I love being outdoors and Oregon has got to be the greatest place in the states to live. We have so much culture and different climates to see. Its constantly evolving and I'm definitely planted here for life. For the past 8 months I have been preparing to start my own business. Which in the next couple of months will finally become a reality. And though its put some strain on my family I believe it will pay off for all of us in the end.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

George Jones (what a stud). He is truly genuine and thats hard to find now days. Also I would like to just meet good people. Not perfect though! I mean people that take their experiences whether positive or negative and use those things to better themselves and the people around them.

Take a risk

"To love is to risk not being loved in return. To hope is to risk pain. To try is to risk failure, but risk must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing."

something to think about

In a story told in many traditions and versions; a man is crouched over the ground at night under a lamppost obviously looking for something. A passerby asks, "Have you lost something?", "Yes, my key...

courage and unpopular causes

Common experience shows how much rarer is moral courage than physical bravery. A thousand men will march to the mouth of the cannon where one man will dare espouse an unpopular cause.-Clarence Darrow
