My Family

I would like to introduce you all to my 'chosen kids'. These beautiful kids are on paper, my nieces and nephews...but in my heart....they are my kids. Life hasn't been easy for any of us as we were growing up...but having that someone who loves to to your core makes life sweet. I haven't seen them in the flesh for about 15 years... and the little ones...well I have never chased them, kissed them, cuddled them or been silly around them. I love you all so much and miss you everyday.

This handsome man is Nathan. He is engaged to Leanne. Don't they make a stunning couple!!! He is 23 years old.

These beautiful little kids are Emily, who just turned 4 on Wednesday and Seth who is 7. They are Maxine's little ones. How cute are they!


This is my beautiful girl, Maxine. She is 28 on the 27th. I miss her so much! Luckily I get to talk to her on the phone alot. She is married to Steve. He is a cutie too!!!

This is Emi with a coat on that was Maxine's when she was a little girl.

This gorgeous man is Jamie. He is 26 and single girls!!!! He is with his beautiful son, Dylan who is 2. I love facebook so much. I have found all of my kids through it. Jamie and I were so close and he was my little shadow. I wish I could turn back the clock and do things a bit different. He lived with me and Pete when he was 11. I stupidly sent him home and have regretted that decision since he was gone. When he told me the other day that he loves me....I sat at my computer and cried.

I can't change the past for us...but hopefully I can make the rest of our lives complete and full of unconditional love. The other day, after chatting on fb with Jamie....I finally felt like I had come full circle. I felt at peace.

I love you kids so much and thank you for coming back into my life.

So....when I say how many kids I have.....I will be saying that I have 5 kids. :)
