Hello my name is Leslie I am 38 years. I am a pretty uncomplicated person. I am married and have been for 18 years. Yes I still love my husband very much. I am finished with my bachelors degree in Social Science with a minor in Psycology. Its taken me 8 years. Don't laugh I have three kids who need to come first. My kids are Brittany 18, Freddy 16, and Eric 12. My kids are my first and most important job.

My other children have been such champs with this situation. I know it is hard on them but they are the best and I know they feel left out at times but I love them all the same.
