About Me

I have 2 miniature Dachshunds named Roxanne and Warner. ...I love to be social and hang out with my friends, but I am not a party girl. I miss my best friend Miriam more than words can explain...I have a wonderful husband and a beautiful son whom I adore......I have an awesome family. 3 older sisters...a wise father...and my Mom is my hero. Whiteman Air Force Base in Missouri was named after my father's uncle, George A Whiteman who was the first pilot shot down in Pearl Harbor...I was born and lived the first 10 years of my life in Belize, Central America. I hate cold weather...I love the ocean...I make great Iced Tea...I've had 7 teeth pulled to make room in my mouth for braces...I've never had stitches...I love my green eyes...I have 4 tattoos...I have 5 nieces and 3 nephews. My daddy is a preacher...I love the American Flag and what it stands for......I'm sarcastic, strong, happy and extremely blessed.

Happy Birthday Alex!

One year.
He's one year old.
I can't believe it. I feel like I have no idea where the time went or what we did for the last 365 days. I can't remember life before he was a part of it. I can't remember who I was before he was born.
Not that I want to. He is without a doubt, an irreplaceable part of who I am. I have learned so many things in the last year. I've learned about life...what I want from life. I've learned about who I am...how strong I am. How strong my marriage is. I've learned that no matter what life hands me, I have the support all around me and the strength inside me to get through it.
Alex has made me want to be a better person. He's made me question my outlook on life and my acceptance of things that I CAN change. He makes me hold on a little tighter to the people I care about but at the same time he helps me to take things in stride. He teaches me patience. He teaches me to laugh at things that aren't worth crying over. He adores me. He adores his father.
And we, absolutely, adore him.
