Sitting at a stop light in autumn of 1979, I glanced out the window of my friend's VW Bug to meet the eyes of a handsome Italian looking back at me from the window of his '65 Mustang. His afro, goatee, and blaring rock music created the image of everything my mother had always told me to run from. Something about him, though, compelled me to wave and smile. He waved and smiled back. The short version of the story is that we were married the following July. He was 20 and I was 16. He still makes my heart dance.

As part of my writing endeavors, I also keep several blogs.  Feel free to stop by and visit any time.

We have been blessed with five children: Jeff, Luke, Trevor, Matt, and Rosie. We have a beautiful little granddaughter, Morgan, who lights up our life. We also have two sweet Heaven-babies, Jamie and Heather, and a daughter Crystal in CA with whom we were blessed to be reunited 7 years ago, along with her husband Ramon and daughter Brooke. We have chosen to learn together as a family at home (and everywhere else!) and we laugh together as often as possible.

...to my little corner of the web, where it is always autumn, and the peace of God floats down in perpetual motion like leaves dancing from tree branches. It is my prayer that you will be blessed by your visit, and that you will go away refreshed.  More About Ladyblue
