I am a wife, a mom and a grandmom. Family is my passion even though I may not show it all the time. I would lay down more than my life for my family.


I am a Born Again Christian and not afraid to tell anyone how the Lord has Blessed me in more ways than I can count.






Thank you CampDavid for this little ditty.
You made my week. =)

There once was a New Jersey Granny,
Who's polls about food were uncanny.
But then came a mood,
Made us sing for our food.
Which earned her a boot to her fanny!

My mom's father. He died when she was young, but I have read his journal and I wish that I had had the chance just once to get to meet him.

I am waiting for the day that I will meet Jesus!

"I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."

Ok there are just way to many books that I have enjoyed reading over the years to name them all. Some of the authors I have enjoyed are, Lawrence Sanders: his Deadly sins series and his McNally series. C.S. Lewis, Stephen White. I enjoyed Logan's Run, Purpose Driven Life. The Bible. I think that I like books that make me stretch my thinking and opening me up to new ways of seeing things. But for fun I really love a good mystery novel, that has a little bit of romance and humor thrown into the mix.

YOU, LORD, GIVE PERFECT PEACE TO THOSE WHO KEEP THEIR PURPOSE FIRM AND PUT THEIR TRUST IN YOU" Isaiah 26:3

Matthew Henry said, " It ought to be the business of every day to prepare for our final day."

THERE ARE MOMENTS IN YOUR LIFE THAT MAKE YOU AND SETS THE COURSE OF WHO YOU'RE GOING TO BE. SOMETIMES THEY'RE LITTLE, SUBTLE MOMENTS. SOMETIMES, THEY'RE BIG MOMENTS YOU NEVER SAW COMING. NO ONE ASKS FOR THEIR LIFE TO CHANGE, BUT IT DOES. IT'S WHAT YOU DO AFTERWARDS THAT COUNTS. THAT'S WHEN YOU FIND OUT WHO YOU ARE!

My mom is one of my heroes. When push came to shove she faced her future with dignity and grace and a sense of humor. I pray that I can be like that when my end comes.

My Great-Grandmother. She loved me just for me. Not for who she wanted me to be, or what she thought I should be, just for me. She never had a bad word for anyone, and held on to her faith in God for her whole life.

The Lord, but he is so much more than a hero to me.

To my Husband who works so hard to provide for his family. I thank him for loving me as much as he does.

All of my Kids!! They are who they are and they never try to be anything else. They are hard working, honest, they stand up for one another and they are the funniest bunch of people I know. You make me so proud to say that I am your Mother!!!
