About Me

I'm a 26 yr. old mommy of two of the most handsome, smartest little baby boys you will ever meet and a wifey to a very dedicated, strong and intelligent hustla of a man. (Not officially "married", don't get it twisted)But let's just say he's pretty blessed. hahahaI can honestly say that I am a BIG hearted person who can give and give even when it seems there is no more to give. Unfortunately when people tend to take advantage you'll find me keeping to myself and mines. I'm very thankful to those who helped me along the way to the point I am now and can admit all my mistakes and use them as learning experiences. If people find it hard to accept ME, then it's their loss. I am and will always be there for my family whether they are there for me or not. I'm always just a phone call away. These days, I prefer to spend all my extra time with my kiddos and hubby but do luv my adventures out with my girlfriends. It's not that I don't enjoy the nightlife and the bar scene anymore... it's just that when you start as early as I did, it get's old and you grow up. Though I don't and never did have many girlfriends, I luv that a little nerd named Tom made it possible to reunite with the originals in my life, the ones that kept it REAL. I never did get along with too many females, they talk too much. Me, I talk but I mean Everything I say. A close friend once told me "I'd rather hurt you with the truth than to make you feel good with a lie" at the time it pissed me off. But after awhile I realized that's the best thing you could ever do for anyone you care about. For awhile, I lost my "mouthpiece" and just started to let everyone hear what I thought they wanted to hear. But not anymore, the old me is back new and improved!! hahaha One thing I am working on improving, is me being such a hot head... It's getting there...Something else I realized is that the best things in life really are free. I enjoy our little family get away vacations, even though they sometimes cost more than the norm - but that's what you are supposed to do with LiFe - LIVE, LoVe and Be HaPpY! How boring is it to stay in the lines that are outlined for you by the government - show me some people that work, pay bills, work and are truly happy. It's not for me, it's not for us. Again, don't get it twisted we work hard and provide for ours - we just do things a little different. In the end, I'm just the 26 yr. old mommy of two with a demanding baby daddy who wishes for World Peace. Oh, and I am happy to say that I am finally done studying for my Contractor's License and will be taking my test very soon, YAY!Pretty much, that's me in a nutshell. Take it or leave it. Either way, I'mma do me, you do you and in the end I'll respect you just for keeping it real, no matter which way the wind blows. One luv.

My Interests

Shopping, traveling, visiting beaches, seeing beautiful things (if you look hard enough you really can see beauty in everything),doing awesome hair, ice cream parlors, Caramel Frapps, comedy shows, dancing, shoes, pictures, live bands, visiting my parents n sisters, my nephew Adrian & god daughter Serena (when I can),playing dress-up with the Lilybigs is the most fun (since I don't have a little girl of my own)and listening to my godson do his little "oowah oowah" haha last but never least my luv and my sons.
