Dear Blog,
I have never blogged before. But on the other hand, there is a first time for everything, aye? Well here goes.

I am a wife and mother. I have a daughter who is married, and a son and daughter at home. My husband is a self employed builder and contracter.

I love my family. My oldest daughter and husband have been married a year and a half and live out of state. My second daughter lives at home and has work in housecleaning. My youngest is a boy and he is in High school.

I was the only girl in my family, with 5 younger brothers. I loved them all dearly, but always longed for a sister. I would dream of what it would be like to dress a little sister in pink, and put ribbons in her hair. So when God blessed us with 2 little girls, I was thrilled. Out comes the pink! Out come the little white shoes and the ribbons! Then 5 years later we had a boy. I love to tell my son how special he was to me. After 2 girls in pink I did not realize how much fun it would be to have a boy in blue! So now it's little hats and blue jeans...only 14 years later it is not "little" hats and blue jeans, its football player size!

I am a lady of hobbies and many loves. I have a camera glued to me at all times. I like to sew. I love to raise flowers and enjoy making flower arrangments with things I find in my back yard. I enjoy facebook and hold my friends very dearly. I love to sing and love my church family. I love to worship God who is my maker, my Redeemer and friend. I love to laugh and have fun, and sometimes just be goofy. I am also a perfectionist, and therefore can be a real procrastinater, cause the time is never quite right! I love a good book, and love a good day of "shop till you drop" with friends.

Speaking of being a perfectionist, it definately has it's negative. You would think if I was a perfectionist, I would always have everything done and in tip top shape, right? Thats really crazy, because it doesn't work that way for me, altho I've seen people who appeared to be like that.

I also have dog. Her name is Sophie and she really is interesting, to say the least. Sometimes I love her and sometimes I wonder at my sanity in ever going to airport to pick her up...
