I am pretty easy going, most people find me funny and loyal. My children are my world, I have 5, yes I said 5 Boys :).. All in the age range of 9 year old special needs, 5 year old, 3 who came on the pill, 2 who came with the shot ,1who came with the merina (he was a twin but she didnt make it) and newborn. There are somedays I do feel like I may very well lose my mind. But I feel so blessed... I love snail mail, because as much time as I spend in hospitals, and doctors....it's nice to share everyday life through letters...And when you have special needs children like I do, people whom you thought of lifelong friends become MIA, until they need something.Born an only child, my parents divorced when I was very young. I like music and collect anything with a heart on it, I also love quotes, and hearing about people over coming odds. I've always loved Hello Kitty. Im a big football fan, and even named my newborn, Jason Witten after the Dallas Cowboy, (Im not even a cowboy's fan but this man is really a Good person) The simple things in life make me happy....I am so excited to have found this web site...And look forward to meeting Many new friends.

Some of my favorite moments is when I am having a bad day and I get in my Car and my favorite song is on the radio, I enjoy all kinds of music, however I gravitate towards country more these days...Or the theme song to cartoons, I found my say singing, "Im the map, Im the map, I am the MAP" the theme song from Dora, while doing dishes the other night.

I read a lot of romance books, about single parents, or true crime books. I also like books that, tell a story of people over comming odds

Tyler Perry movies make me laugh and cry all at the same time....I also love movies like Ever After, Shop around the corner, and You've got Mail. I have found memories of watching Shop around the corner with my grandma, and then when You've got mail came out and they mention, the movie and I noticed the names were similar, I was excited to find out it was based off of the Shop around the Corner...I also love Disney Princess movies,

I go through reality tv moments, I sometimes watch it just because it amazes me that teen moms drive new cars and live in nice houses...while not really having a normal job. But then I see the other side of the show, they all seem to be really wonderful mothers. I would say Pit bulls and poraloies is one of my favorites, I like Swamp people and hardcore pawn, Any type of how to tv shows are favorite of mine too. Plus with 5 Kids, I get a lot of Max and Ruby, Dora and Sponge Bob, I must admit I do love sponge bob!

I like to make Friendship braclets, my own Jewlery, and I love fabric painting....I am excited to try and make some of the Dotee dolls, although I am unsure what they are :)

I am very excited about making new friends and honestly finding something I can enjoy, all while being a mommy. I love that it's all done through the mail. I had a pen pal who was 78 we had wrote from 2003 until recently when she passed away, after a long battle of cancer. It would be nice to find friends who will write, even when life gets hectic, and writes more then just the Hi how are you....I miss friendship books, and just the fun stuff of pen pals...

I want to let everyone know Since I have moved to kansas just a year ago and I am not sure were the POST OFFICE is actually, because the one people seem to send me is not a post office anymore its a dog clinic, so I mail from the Grocery Store post office, I am not real comfortable with that but I use confirmation for packages....And I get to mail on Sundays so, Yeah!!! lol.. Put in my hometown the post office was right smack in the center of town easy in easy out , but city living is a shock lol.
