I realize I started this blog to be open and honest about who I am for the first time in my life, about me, my weight, my thoughts my fears and most anything else I wanna talk to you all about! Welp someone asked me in email if I would share a little more about me.. sooo here goes :D I grew up as the adopted child of my aunt and uncle, whom I will always ALWAYS call Mom and Dad they are my mom and dad always and forever, it takes a real special person to raise a child that isn't their own and take care of them even though they didn't have to, so if you are reading this mom and dad I LOVE YOU! Never forget that.
I was always a insecure child, I was the kind who couldn't have more than one friend at a time because I felt it was important to give one person the best friendship possible, I know this probably makes no sense but it's who I was... growing up I always felt ugly, even though I wasn't a chubby kid or now that I look back at it I wasn't ugly. I never felt pretty like the other girls, I had no confidence at all. I surprised myself once by entering a speech contest for the 4H club and low and behold I went to state, but that wasn't enough to make me have confidence either. I always liked the cute boys in class and things but they never liked me. I was never the popular girl or the girl people wanted to be around. I was the outcast and my friends were all mainly what most people consider to be outcast. However they were special. I grew up with a chip on my shoulder for no good reason.
When I got to high school I met a guy my Sophmore year we "dated" til my junior year and then my mom started allowing me to really date him, he would come over sit on the sofa etc... big time stuff for me.. lol. We got to Christmas Senior year and in his old beat up crappy chevy blazer he gave me a fake cubic zerconia ring and declared he wanted to marry me. I of course being a nieve teenager jumped at the chance to have a husband even tho he wasn't at all what I wanted or thought my knight in shining armor would be. Long story short, I was told several times he cheated on me but I ignored them and he often left me hanging and the entir relationship was childish but in April of the year 1997 I married this man. by November 2000 I was delivering my third child.
That brings me to my most precious blessing ever; my kids. I have three kids, they are 12, 11 and 10 yrs old. They are trully my everything. Ten months divided my 12 and 11 year old and 13 between my 11 and 10 year old. So they are declared as my dad says "Irish Twins" I at the age of 21 had been married for almost 3 yrs and had 3 children, and a marriage that was sad due to the fact that it was pretty much loveless. We remained married for ten years and then we both decided that due to his need for other women we would call it quits after 10 years. I gotta tell you most people would consider this a heartbreak and complete mess but for me... it was my saving grace.
I got some money together, moved closer to my family and started my new life as a single mommy... I gotta tell you, I didn't miss him at all. Weird I know. I was a single mommy for I think close to 2 yrs and thats when I met my now husband, whom I can honestly tell you I adore. He is amazing and we met outta the most weird circumstance. Most people warn you about meeting people online, wellll I'm the exception in this case I met my current husband on myspace... we got to know one another met in person and things took off from there and ladies I gotta tell you... this is DEFINATLY the one. I never felt the way I do about him about anyone ever in my life.
So this brings me to my life, I am a mommy, a wife, a daughter and sister. I live in Eastern Kentucky, and the things I enjoy doing are now my blog, but I love watching movies, I actually adore cleaning and decorating my home, I play the acoustic guitar, and sing. I love all music and I attend church every Sunday. My dad is a preacher and my mom is my bestest friend in the world. I have a step sister who I wouldn't ever call a step because she's my sister and best friend and I love her to pieces we are super close. I have three brothers and I've got a pretty great life.
Right now I feel like i've typed enough to bore ya'll for a while soooo I'm going to end it right here... I guess this is some of my about me hehe :)) I am positive there are things I've forgotten to mention here but I am certain there is plenty of time to write more in future blogs!! Hope everyone is having a great Thursday !! Talk Soon!!!
