Like a beautiful diamond, there are many facets to my life.  I am first a loving and devoted wife to my husband, Rob.  Next, I am a mom to my beautiful son and daughter and a grandma to eleven beautiful grandchildren.  I am also mom to three incredible cats:  Merlin, Maggie, and Maxine.  Family is very important to me because the individuals closest to us help to ground us, motivate us, and love us throughout our lifetime. It is through those relationships that our true purpose expresses itself.

​

I still recall the memories of seeing my father go off to work with his briefcase in hand lovingly kissing my mom goodbye each day. We were fortunate to have him home with us much more often than many other working parents.  We were also blessed to have mom home with us all of the time.  It is through those experiences that I learned the importance of cherishing every single moment of each and every day.

​

It seems as if life passes more quickly the older we become.  Can you relate?  I still remember taking my daughter home from the hospital and just recently she took her fourth little one home with her.  My how time passes!  Being a young grandma is wonderful!  I wish my grandchildren lived closer and I am grateful for facetime and Zoom!
