~I'm a married 28-year old woman, relocated from Laguna Beach, CA, to St. Petersburg, FL, in order to be with my husband and the love of my life.
~Our combined families include four girls -- ages 17, 12, 8 and 6 -- and our challenges have been many. However, since we met about 8 years ago at church in California, my husband and I have been able to make a commitment to keep Christ first in our lives, our marriage and our home.
~I feel fortunate to be married to a Godly, wonderful man who actually knows what being a leader means; never has to worry about leaving his laptop and email open, and after God, puts me first in his life.
~I'm originally from upstate New York, but I've lived in North Carolina where I went to college, California and now Florida. I'm young, but perhaps unfortunately, seasoned beyond my years.
~I want to be a mother and a wife that years from now all of our kids -- including my stepkids, -- will look up to me and say, "You were a good example and I want to be just like my mom."
Life has taught me that it's not about winning the battle, it's about winning the war, and I'm determined to remain Christ-centered in a godless world and make a difference to all of those with whom I come in contact.
Certainly, we all face challenges, and my husband and I have had our share. However, we've learned that God "wastes no pain," and if we stay the course, continue the fight, and finish the race, in the end, all we have endured will serve to bless and inspire others beyond our wildest dreams.
