About Me

My photo
I am a 30-something mother to 6 children; his, mine and ours. My calling in this world is to document everything. Stories and joys and people and events and tragedies that make up life. And I want to be there to share it. I am the fourth of five children. I have been a mother since I was 18. I have a degree in English Journalism. I am working on two novels and trying to publish a children's book and would like to get into the greeting card market on the side. I have a freelance writing business for which I write feature articles for several publications in my hometown, a column in our city magazine, write reviews for recording artists, and offer a wide array of communications consulting and products.The most inspirational people in my life are, not idly, my children who see the world through stained glass windows and my Nana and late grandfather Noonie my wonderfully handsome loving man. I love to write country songs, play board games and watch movies. And I love CAKE!!!

Easy to Love

Sheryl Crow's latest released single "Easy" begs this question to be answered, "Why is loving my sweetie so easy?" And I'll tell you right now, if I had all the time in the world I wouldn't be able to list every reason why it is so easy to love my husband. But with what time I have I will attempt to convey the most absolute deliciously delirious love I have for my husband and why he has earned it. Our story is not unlike others but with one major catch; ours is a story of success, adoration, respect, sexy love, flirting, playing, growing, and learning. When or if, on the rare occasion there is any fussing, (which we hardly ever do) there's the added bonus of finding each other and sharing one side of the bed. He went through a horrible divorce from an evil selfish force who slept with anyone with chest hair, took his two kids and used his love for them against him. I put an end to that as best I could and we, after four fighting years of half time parenting, got custody. I had two children from a previous relationship and he adopted them in his heart the very day he proposed to me and then through the courts. We had two children together and they are definitely our kids, no question about that. Having the his, mine and ours turn successfully into ours, ours and ours shows that we are formidable adversaries and a team with which to reckon. I have his best interest at heart and will fully charge forth in his stead. He knows this. He is my balance, my ying; he is the one person in the world who makes my existence make perfect sense. I have said all this to say I love him because he is easy to love. And if you know what I mean when I say that, then you will have known what I was trying to say the whole time.
