Hello! I thought I would tell you a little about myself.
In life it is sometimes hard to really let your true self be seen and known, whether it be from influences or trauma, it can at times be later in life when we really feel safe to let our true self be known.
I come from an only child home. I do have a half brother but he was grown and on his own when I came around. So our relationship was and has never blossomed (pretty much void). I was raised in a middle to lower class home with both working parents. (Yes I am spoiled)
My mother introduced me to Jesus when I was just learning to talk. My father taught me to shoot as a toddler. I learned to shoot with a bebe gun and progressed from there. He also taught me how to fish and gave me the love I have today for car racing (locally that is). I never watch the ones on tv at least not that often. My family came from the south and taught me that Southern love and charm. My mom taught me where my place is with my man and where my place is with God. Although a struggle to trust both, I learn daily.
I had suffered a lot in the hands of loved ones and a close friend of the family growing up. I can not go through detail right now, I do plan to write a book though.
My father passed shortly after my first daughter was born. He passed suddenly from heart failure. My mother passed almost 10 years after my father from aggressive breast cancer. She waited long enough to see me get my GED, have three of my four girls and marry the wrong man. Of course at the time I did not look at him as the wrong man but after almost 20 years of being together I learned all too late that I deserved better. So I divorced him and was homeless with four girls.
After finally getting back on my feet, watching my oldest daughter come into motherhood and wife hood all too early, then I decide to go to college and become an example for my girls. I did not finish college due to another calling God has on my life. I chose things that was not God led and caused me to waste time and energy on the wrong things.
So I am here today married to the right man, grandmother of two beautiful granddaughters(as of to date), housewife, home school teacher, and a survivor. I could go on and on about my status but you will learn more about me as you read my blogs and watch my videos.
I want to be all that God has called me to be and live the remainder of my life in His image and not the image I was influenced and traumatized into being.
Thanks for your support,
