About Me

Devoted Wife, Mother to 2 of God's Angels, Simply Blessed...For those who crave detail, here's my quick bio: Those near and dear to my heart might call me "aR" every now and then. But I'm not that reserved school girl I used to be. In fact, I'm all grown up now. I was born in Honolulu, HI. Raised in sunny San Diego. Graduated from University of California, Davis in 2003. Then eloped and married Paul Patrick Valenzuela in Goose Creek, South Carolina, Novemeber 2003. Two years later, we welcomed Anthony Paul Naanos Valenzuela into this world. And two years after that, we welcomed our 2nd baby, Mia Angeline Naanos Valenzuela. So, currently I'm a SAHM (Stay At Home Mom), and loving every second. That's until I have to go back to work for the world's largest credit union, Navy Federal CU. My family comes first. My husband is my hero. He saves me from myself at times. And my kids are my life. Because of them, I sacrificed having a social life . (So, to my friends reading this right now, just know I still and forever will cherish our friendship.) Unfortunately, there's not enough space on here to tell you my life's story. So, if you want to know more, don't be a stranger. Drop me a quick hello. =)

My Interests

When not consumed by motherhood, I enjoy a little "me" time. I love getting facials, massages, and pedicures. And when I'm at home, I enjoy the Home&Garden channel. HGTV is the coolest channel! I only recently started watching it. Great home decor ideas!

Hugs..better than sex?

There is no greater feeling than to be loved. Wouldn't you agree? So when that love is gone, life suddenly feels empty. Sigh...Most times I would agree with that last statement. Until today, I was hol...
