About Me

These are the reasons
I wake up every morning
..
"They may forget what you said, but they will never forget how you made them feel."
Carl W. Buechner."
"Loyalty means nothing unless it has at its heart the absolute principle of self-sacrifice."
~Woodrow Wilson~
After 12 years... We finally did it!

Chris and I were married on August 5th, 2006
On the shores of South Lake Tahoe
It was the most beautiful, perfect day we could have ever wished for
I'm so blessed to have such an amazing man stand by my side, as Chris has all these years.
He is all that I love, respect, trust, dream of
All wrapped up in one amazing soul!

Who I am
I am who I am, take it or leave it LOL
I dont try to impress people
I'm very genuine
I dont mince words
I say what I mean and will back it up with my actions
I learned at a very young age that you cant just say something, you actually have to act on what you believe.
If you dont, your words are pointless.
I am very caring
At times, to caring
I get my feelings hurt easily
But I also get over them once I rationalize the situation.
Most of the time.
I dont forget when I or my family has been wronged.
I might forgive it
But I will not forget it.
I am big on learning lifes lessons
And carrying those lessons with me. And teaching them to my 3 amazing children.
But I do realize they need to learn some of lifes lessons on their own.
Its hard to let them feel disappointment and hurt
But knowing that they are learning about themselves and learning to trust themselves and their OWN judgement of people and situations is priceless.
I have my own opinions and I can actually back up WHY I have those opinions.
I'm big on owning your thoughts and feelings
Make them matter!
Have reasonings behind them
Believe in yourself
And others will believe in you!

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Be who you are
say what you feel
because those who mind
don't matter
and those who matter
don't mind.
~Dr. Seuss~
I NEVER KNEW TRUE HAPPINESS
UNTIL I WAS BLESSED WITH UNCONDITIONAL LOVE
