A little insight about ME:-)

Hmmm a little about me, well where do I start? There are many things that make up me and these could be a little tricky to write because I don't usually write about me so much-mostly the things that I like that makes up a small part of me but to get to know me a little more I guess I have to go a little deeper on what really makes up Me..

I was born in 1970 in Wyoming and I am the oldest of 3 with a sister and brother both younger than me-I always thought it was a joy to have one of each when I was growing up. I graduated in 1989 and about a yr. after high school I decided I wanted to go as far away as I could (to see a new place) to be a nanny. I went to Connecticut and I loved it but I was quite homesick for my family and for where I lived so that was short lived and came home 3 months later. I met my husband 4 months after I came home and we started dating but never got married for almost a year later. I knew the first night I met him that I would end up being his wife.

I became a mom when I was 24 but so close to 25 that it would count for it:-) I knew all my life since I was a kid that I wanted to be a Mom and Wife but never knew I would be blessed with the family I've got. I now have 3 children and they are the light of my life.

I don't deal with changes so well and I am a dweller-my Mom always used to tell me that I dwell on things too much..this is my emotional side of me coming out. I feel like I am too sensitive at times with things and I can sometimes cry at the drop of a hat-you know commercials, songs, drawings and cards the kids give me..you name it.

I love my friends and my family and when you are my friend you will be for life. I get hurt easily but I bounce back too. I love to talk and listen to music-music has inspired me since I was a little girl (my friends and my sister sometimes call me on the phone and ask: what is the name of this song?) lol. I love cooking and trying new recipes but I am not a very good baker-you should see some of my cakes that are from a darn box recipe(can we say cooking school-NOT)

I am a scrapbooker and card maker-love making cards with rubber stamps and my supply of scrapbook supplies keeps me busy. I just became a Creative Memories consultant and really love teaching others the hobby. Right now I would say that I am content where I am at but I have my days and that I will leave up to God-He knows me the best!
