the beginning

It has always been a passion of mine....to write. To share my thoughts and words...One day I hope to publish a novel, but for now I will blog. It is my hope that my thoughts and words will one day be shared with my children, grandchildren, and on.

This is my first ever blog! I was inspired recently to blog by a friend's daughter. After reading her blogs of her trips to Spain and other places in the world I thought wow! I was impressed! It made me want to grab a journal and take a trip somewhere. I didn't care where, but somewhere to experience the things she did. It was amazing. I don't get to travel too much, so my experiences and writings will be from the home-the place my heart resides.

I am married to a wonderful man and we have 2 children. One of our children is blessed with her high school diploma and a temporary stay at the nearby community college. She is determined to leave town for college after her foundations are covered. I just stand back and let her figure things out for herself. She's always been a very determined girl. No matter what her thinking process, she almost always manages to do what is right. I love her for her optimism and spirit! She has such a huge heart for those she holds dear. She has a love for life and sees the best in people. She is a daddy's girl to heart! She will defend and protect him dearly. She is my lawyer and my fighter. She will always be strong in mind, body and spirit.

Our son is the younger one. As he begins his years in middle school, he is transforming into a nice young man. He is responsible and careful. He observes and takes note to detail. His work comes natural, but he still puts effort to get things done. It normally takes him to be told once to do most things, but his sister will beg to differ. He is my business man and my protector. He loves to laugh and ready for a practical joke any day. He has a heart of gold and can be easily torn if he knows he has disappointed you. He knows what he wants and doesn't hesitate to go after it. He can sometimes be misunderstood, but I understand him.

My husband of 14 1/2 years is my best friend. He is my partner and love of my life. He has been a guardian angel by my side. Even in the worse of times he knows what to do. He knows what I need and provides every part. He is determined, strong and willful to accomplish the things he says he would. He is a hard worker and does what it takes to care for us-his family. He is a high achiever. If he wants something, he doesn't hesitate to get it. I suppose my son gets that from him. Our dreams are brought to life because of him.

These are the main people in my life. They are the ones I live for each day. They make my life so full of love and spirit. Everyday I wake up to a new morning, I feel blessed because I have them in my life. They are the characters to my story.
