As I approach the beginning of my thirties I have found that I am blessed to lead such a fulfilling life! I am a wife, a mother (of 2 small boys), a sister, a daughter, and a friend. My beloved and I have been married seven years and are more in love today then the day we met. My children are a constant source of joy and full of curiosity as most small BOYS are. There is never a day that I do not thank God for their existence in my life!

I was not a reader as a child/teen/young adult. I hated reading and being made to read books! If you asked me then about books I would have laughed at you and told you only smart people read... or that book were for dorks.

I found that there were several people in my life who insisted I read. They were relentless in their desire for me to understand the wonderful world of books. They bribed me to read, took me for outings to libraries and bookstores, anything that they thought might draw me in. With time my disdain for literature grew into an appreciation for books... this blossomed into a fondness of books... which eventually became a love for knowledge that was found in books. So you see I wasn't always a lover of the past time that now I could never live without! « less
