I am here for Friends

About Me

I AM GETTING MARRIED! Stephen and I finally set a date and we will be married October 17,2009...coming up fast. We have a little boy named Sam that just turned 2...holy crap how did that happen? I am having a hard time believing that 2 years have already passed. He is a little chuck and I definitely see him growing up to be an engineer/competitive eater/line backer when he grows up. I have gained a new perspective on life seeing my son enter into the world and watching my Mother leave. Life is so special and you so live your life and have no regrets. I have learned a great number of things. I have learned that you can not count on anyone but yourself - and even then you may still let yourself down. I have learned that no matter how bad you think things are..they can and usually will- get worse. Friends will let you down and people that you always thought would be in your corner will walk out on you. When things happen you have to learn it is part of a divine plan and is usually for the best- rather you see it that way or not.I have found many new loves in my life-- Knitting, bubble baths, scented oil, the feel of cold air blowing through my window at night, over stuffed pillows, the way hot tea feels on your throat on a cold day, the smell of baby soap, family game nights, making coffee for my mom in the morning, shag carpet between my toes, and most of all Sam... his smiles, his giggles, when he talks to me, and the way he looks at me. There is something so amazing about seeing everything through Sam's eyes and watching him learn new things...It makes you think. I really do think that he was the one great thing that I was destined to do. *****************************************************Here are a couple videos of Sam jammin...bringing sexy back...

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

I would like to meet the man of my dreams. I have been told that he IS out there and all I have to do is QUIT looking--that is easier said than done. I hope to one day find a man that will love me for who I am and not who I was, love my son as he would his own, and fit into my family as if he was always a part of it.If you know him please let me know.
