I have been beyond lucky to have a comfortable life. More than comfortable actually, I have been able to do and experience things most adults have not done. I have traveled to Japan, England, Scotland, been on four cruises to Cozumel, Grand Cayman, St. John/ St. Thomas, Tortola, Nassau, and the list goes on and on.

I have learned how to work for what I want, and that life is tough but, so am I.

She worked full time as Physical Therapist which can be a very demanding job, especially when understaffed and around the holidays. My mom would pick my brother and me up from daycare at 5, and would have dinner on the table by 6:00, and we would be in bed by 8:00. My mom never stopped running around, she made single parenting look
