I am:

Asian American (sometimes Asian sometimes American)

A proud YANKEE...Easterner/Northerner....ummm I hail from no where, but I choose 'UP North' b/c that's where my ppl come from...really though, I remember more about Boston, Jersey, PA...and of course VA....

a baseball fan...give me the Yanks, okay okay or the Red Sox, but hubby's fave...Oakland..yes the A's...even though he's a Jersey boy

a mommy to Matthew Tao or Matty or Matty Tao or Shu-Shu...or whatever nickname we give him, my favorite big boy

a mom to Mackenzie Taylor, my Ken or Kenzie...she's the most awesome, sweetest, kind hearted, animal loving (horses esp!) teen in the world!

And now our baby Girl!!! Anna Grace Patchalee! She is the smallest of all our babies, nicknames Minnie or Anna Banana or Naner's...She's bossy and sweet, lovable and demanding..She IS the baby of our family and the 'center' of everyone's attention!!

A proud wife to one solider, Mark..my favorite man in the world who will have a lot of competition when his son grows up...LOL

Hard headed, stubborn, strong, willful, outgoing, suspicious, 'bitchy', spoiled, happy-go-lucky, but very OCD at times....

a BIG music person, and movie person, what movies i haven't seen hubby certainly has...I love punk, 'rock' or alternative, top 40 (so sue me!), some club stuff for the dance aspect...

the best friend anyone could have, but won't b/c I'm picky, out spoken, and don't trust just anyone! My greatest friends are few a far between, but once you are I call you family!
