- I was born on a Wednesday
- I grew up in a small traditional southern town
- My first love was my crossing guard at Blake Elementary School( he was in his 60's)
- In elementary school I was in the Great Books program
- In 4th grade I got braces
- In 9th grade I had my jaw broke and was wired shut for 9 weeks
- I graduated from Greenwood High School in 1987(also one of the happiest days of my life!)
- I attended three colleges
- In 1990 I was involved in a near fatal car accident
- I did summer mission work in SC, CA, OR, and IA
- I taught English in South Korea for a short time
- In 1993 I met the man of my dreams!
- 11 months later I married that man!
- 14 months later we had our first child
- 3 years later we had our second child
- and almost 2 years later we had our LAST child!
- In 2008 we moved from Greer SC to Dallas TX
So there are some of the last 42 years! That is a short list but believe me it has been a much fuller life! It has not always been an easy life, I did leave out a lot of pain, like the death of my Dad in 1999. But I feel like I can because he was the one who taught me to have joy in living! To live every day to the fullest, and to laugh often! He taught me how to place my faith in an eternal, all powerful God that will NEVER leave me or desert me, and I know that is THE most important lesson I could have ever learned in my life. I don't fear the future because my future is secure! If you don't know that for yourself call me or write me we need to talk! So 42 years? I will take them...and I will take 42 more!!
