Being a mom is EVERYTHING  to me.  I am not the most patient, creative, fun, efficient, or relaxed mom in the world but I REALLY try to be.  I have wanted to be a mommy since I was a little girl playing with my dolls.  It's really because of my own mother and her example that inspired me to do what I do today.  I believe very firmly in "old fashioned" values and do my best to teach my children to live that way.  Sometimes I feel, over-tired, over-worked, and unappreciated but, that's JUST LIFE and all of those little giggles, kisses, and hugs remind me why I chose this "profession" .  Motherhood is priceless and there isn't ANYTHING else I would rather do than this.
