I adore children and family. I'm a happy homemaker and the mother of 2 gorgeous boys and wife to one gorgeous man. I am also an artist, and I call myself a writer. When I was growing up, horses were my saving grace, until I set eyes upon the blue eyed beauty that is my husband, and gave birth to my first child. We have been together almost 9 years. Yay! The birth of my second child added another dimension to this thing we call LOVE. Yes, we likes to make the babies;) They are the honor of a lifetime. I have been a stay at home mother for 7 years now. We are a true North Carolina family after 8 years in the freezing Midwest town of Madison Wisco. I'm also a soccer mama which I love more than anything!
