About Me

http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/kylerkelley please check it out and send him a note! thanks a new slideshow.. to be continued...
.. I am a mother and grandmother. My life has been a rocky road, but now seems to have smoothed out dramatically. HA! I just thought the road had smoothed out. My favorite time of the day is when I pull into the driveway and my two granddaughters run out and start tugging at me to come play with them.Fortunately, I plan on having many more days like this! They are "the starz in my eyez", and make me smile everytime I see them. I am divorced after almost 17 years of marriage. I have been in the insurance industry for 20 years now. WOW, and I am still capable of learning something new daily. I have 2 children whom I am very very proud of. My oldest is in the Army and currently undergoing chemo for Burkitt's lymphoma in Ft Lewis WA. Soon to be transferred to Ft Gordon GA. I can honestly say.... I hate the reason he is going to be closer, but I thank my lucky starz that he will be. He is married with 2 children. The pride I feel when I think about him makes me beam like a bright sun! So much hardship for this young family. I know God will smile upon them. The youngest is a go getter. He can do most anything he puts his mind to it. He is in a LTR with his girlfriend. They have one little girl that is starting Kindergarten this year! Those two have gone through alot in life and make me very proud of the maturity they have shown for kids there age. I love all of them and it is a great pleasure for me to be able to spend time with them...whenever and wherever ~~sigh~~ I am one happy lady. Another summer.. another happy maga!!! WOOOHOOO!! all my babies are going to be within hours of me!
