My story is yet to be written. I am a wife, a mother, a daughter, a friend, a neighbor...I am as lost as anyone else is in this world. I am, simply put....just ME. Heck, I still don't know what I wanna be when I grow up, and I'm 31. I just thank the good Lord for the abundant blessings I do have in my life, and pray to be a better mother and wife to my family and my husband.
