I am a mother of 2 wonderful children. I have worked as a floral designer and a banker since the children started school many years ago. Now my "babies" are grown and on their own, both fiercly independent and tremendous people. I am still very proud of my children. I tend to love things that grow, children, plants and animals. A bird nest on the porch is better than a winning lottery ticket to me. I enjoy reading and learning, art and poetry. I hope someday to be a grandmother.
