: About Me

I enjoy reading,writing,and outdoors.My cherished moments are those spent with my family,at the dinner table or just being together and listening to my girls as they chat.
I came from a large family,but only birthed two children of my own,both girls.I did however raise two nieces and two nephews,and have opened my home to my niece by marriage,who is handicapped and cannot live on her own.I currently still have my two daughters at home, as well as two nieces.
My occupation is childcare.It is something I enjoy quite a lot.I have always loved kids and find it the greatest fun in watching them grow from infant to Kindergarten age.I love to listen to them interact with each other and learn to solve problems and differences in their own unique way.They are an inspiration to me.
I am also a pastor's wife and enjoy that quite a lot as well.We pastor a little country church that would remind you of a painted picture.Our little, white, steeple, church sits back among trees, with a bubbling stream running in front of it, and a foot bridge to cross the stream.It definitely takes you back in time and is a peaceful place.
I find much inspiration in my life and environment around me to write about.
