My Heart
The Children in the top photo are my niece that taught me how to be a mother I have been with them since they were born and have helped every step of the way..... The child in the suite and the two girls at the bottom are my bonus children and I love them with all my heart and have watched them grow and have been in their lives for the past 7 years. Then there is the little girl in the center and the last little boy I birthed them both and they have brought me so much joy to be a mother... I was not suppose to have any children of my own as I was told by the doctors and in February of 2015 I had Joseph he was 5 weeks early and was so so small he was only 3lbs and 9oz but was a fighter from the start. He had an IV in his head to do platelet transfusions the day he was born, then at a month and a half old he had surgery for two testicular hernias' and had those fixed, then at the age of 2 he was going in for another surgery to have his tonsils and adenoids taking out so he would be able to breather and get a better nights sleep and come off the bottle. Now he is 80lbs and 4ft tall and a healthy happy 5 year old boy. He was my rainbow baby. He looks like me and acts like his daddy. Then in October 2018 I became a mother to a beautiful baby girl Lena and she filled our house with more joy and love. She is a sassy little 2 year old now. She looks like her father and acts like me sometimes. My niece's Ashlyn 17 years old and has turned into an amazing young lady and has her mind set about what she wants out of life and Justiene 15 years old is starting to become a amazing young lady she is just not sure which way to take yet but in due time it will come to her. I thank them every day for helping me get ready to be a great mother to my own children. They also help me with their cousins when needed that are amazing I also thank god that he gave me three bonus children Briana 20 years, Brittany who would of been 18 years old this year and Michael 11 years old now. They are amazing with their little brother and sister. Briana has had her ups and downs as do all children but she has turned into a loving caring and all together amazing young woman and has her life all planed out. Unfortunately my husband and I lost Brittany in April 2019 at the age of 16 to a car accident, and it has been hard for us and all of our children to coop with but with the strength of GOD and the support of one another we have been living day to day hour by hour, and know that life is priceless and live it to the fullest. Always Always say I love you every chance you get cause you do not know when it will be the last time you get to say it. Michael is special in so many ways he wants guidance but then shy's away from it, he is silly and can be a soon to be teen boy and hopefully he finds his what he is meant to be. He gets mad easily and loves gaming. I believe that is what he is going to be doing when he gets older. I love all my children and would give them the world and then if I had the means too. They are gems and they learn from us what we do they see what we say they end up saying one day we have to mold the minds of our Children and make sure they believe in themselves.

My world
We met at a mutual friend’s house for a birthday party, and I was engaged to someone else, that was in 2007, I was 21 and he was 46 at the time of the first meeting.... Did not think anything would ever come of it I went my way, and he went his. I left the man I was going to marry before I did marry him. I moved back home and helped take care of my two nieces. Got a job at a restaurant as a cook in 2009 and he would come in to eat. It was almost every day and we became friends not knowing we knew each other already. We started hanging out and he told me that he had a son on the way and that he already had two daughters. Which was fine with me I did not want a relationship at the time, and people kept warring me about him that he had a crazy ex that he was still involved with. Well then in 2012 he told me that he was getting married to his crazy ex and I told him would not last a year. Well I was right 9 months later I got a call saying he was leaving her. Well he tried to give it another chance and they moved back to his hometown in West Virginia and that did not work. So, he came back to North Carolina and had his oldest daughter go back to her mother and his son go back to his mother because he was unstable at the time. On September 3, 2013 he moved in with me and my family and we started a relationship. Within a month I got pregnant and lost it, then we moved out into our own home March of 2014. By July of 2014 I found out that I was pregnant again and kept it hush hush until the end of my first trimester to be on the safe side. Well in November we found out it was going to be a little boy, and the pregnancy was going good at least that is what I thought we were due at the end of March 2015. Well our little man came into this world on February 19, 2015 at a whooping 3lbs 9oz and 15 inches long he was in NICU for 12 days he came home on my birthday March 3, 2015 at 4lbs even. Then I got pregnant again in January 2018 during a winter storm.... We found out it was a little girl and on October 17, 2018 we had a healthy 7lbs 11oz 20 inches long baby girl. I had some complications with delivery, but she was fine. On our 5th year anniversary of dating he asked me to marry him and I said yes and a year and a month later I walked down the aisle to my best friend and soulmate and said I do. In April of 2019 we lost one of his daughters that was 16 and her little brother which was 7 at the time. We have been through so much in the past 7 years and will to go through so much more in the years to come. He has showed me what true love is and how to become an amazing woman. SO, when I say we are strong, and no one will come between us I meant that. He is my world, and I am his. Our children and him are my motivation every year, month, day, hour and second. He pushes me when I do not want to push myself and he always wants what is best… He is truly, utterly amazing……
