About Me

Once upon a time, there lived a little girl. More than anything in the whole wide world, this little girl wanted to be loved. She searched many, many foreign places for love. She kissed many toads for love. She loved and she loved and she loved. The more she loved, the harder it became. Her tiny little heart was fading. Layers and layers of molten skin were binding her. Finally, the little girl exploded. She began lashing out at everything and everyone in sight. Bolts of lightning were striking all she touched and did not touch. She began to spin out of control.

Beth, My Daughter

Beth was just 9 years old when her father left. It almost crushed her. She grew up very fast in a small amount of time. Today, she blossoms. She will graduate from Nashville School of Arts in May. She has been accepted to Middle Tennessee State University where she will begin in the fall of this year. There are no words to express my love for this child.

Beth's brother Anthony will also graduate in May. He will receive his Associate Degree from Colorado Mountain College. He plans to continue there to receive his Bachelor's Degree. He was 16 when his father left. Still today, he is a "father figure" to his little sister.

Again, I have no words to express my love for my children. My oldest son, Craig, is a single, divorced father of two now. I've watched as he struggled through many obstacles. He is a magnificent being who I cherish deeply.

For me, my children is what makes my world go around. Planted fruit with an awesome flavor!
