I am a wife and mother of five beautiful children! My oldest child and son passed away on August 28th, 2005 when he was 2 1/2 after a choking accident the day before. That exerience changed me as a person. While family was important to me before, it is even more important to me now! I wanted to be the best wife and mother I could with my remaining family. But, it didn't take me long to figure out that while I wanted to be a better wife and mother, I didn't always know how to be. This has led me to return to school to pursue a degree in Family Life Studies, and I hope to one day be a marriage and family educator. I enjoy reading, being outdoors, running, and playing or watching sports!
