♥ Your true character is measured by how you treat those who can do nothing for you ♥

I love my family and friends with all of my heart. That’s what matters most in my life. My daughter Savannah has taught me so much and my son Hunter brings nothing but joy and wonder to my life. I am married to Travis, an amazing man who has brought acceptance, love, and such happiness to me. We have so much fun together and I am excited about our future. My best friend Kimm is a source of support and unconditional friendship and I love her for that.I’m the mother of 3 awesome children. Malachi is now 14, Savannah is 13 and Hunter is 8. Hunter James. My sweetie! Hunter is the joy of my life. My little man is such a blessing. Really, it’s like he’s my first child although he’s the youngest. My experience with Savannah was nothing like a normal mother-daughter relationship. So, for me, the first time I have been able to be a real full time Mommy was with Hunter. He makes every day more happy and fulfilling. He makes me laugh till I cry sometimes. Savannah is a sweet little girl who has been through way too much. More than any adult should go through, much less a child. Savannah was born 3 months premature, plus also went without oxygen for quite awhile because I had a placental abruption. She was born completely blind, unable to walk or talk, and is fed through a feeding tube in her stomach. She has life threatening epilepsy and cerebral palsy among many other health issues. We took care of her at home for over 6 years but when Hunter came along, it was just too much to handle with her increased need for 24 hour care. The hardest thing I have ever done in my life was let her go to live at a Pediatric Nursing Facility. But really, it turned out to be the best for her and our family. Malachi is into sports and is such a sweet and funny kid. He is my step-son from my first marriage. I will always claim him as my child even though Shawn and I are divorced. I lost touch with him for a while but hope to rekindle our friendship and be there for him in whatever ways I can. What happened with Savannah and some other things I have been through have made me view life and religion differently than mainstream I suppose. I believe life is intended as a school for the soul where each of us plans out the lessons we need in order to achieve perfection of the soul. I think of Heaven as the true reality, as opposed to Earth. Heaven is eternal, a place of total harmony, no physical limitations, no problems, and you have a constant awareness of the presence and love of God. I love music, love to sing, enjoy reality TV, love to read, write, and spend time with friends and family.
