I am a 30 year old woman who has had her share of experiences in life. From marring young and having children, to divorce and remarriage. I grew up the Basketball Cheerleader and was somewhat popular in school. I have moved so many times that I know what it is like to be the new kid in town. I have had my share of jobs, from fast food to Accountant. All with no school background, I moved my way up from an eagerness to learn from others and work as a team.

For the most part I am a happy person. I love my children and don't take for granted the things I do have, someone always has it worse.
And that's me!

Our hearts have been broken, betrayed, and trust broken. I can only share my experience with in hopes that this NEVER happens to anyone. When I found out that my partener was cheating I was crushed. How could the person I vowed to love and have children with do this to me! I had given everything to this person; love, respect, trust, and above all a child. I was six months pregnant with his child and al...
