I have never been the type to blog. I tried blogging before, but I could never keep up. However, my sister is an excellent blogger! Maybe I can learn a thing or two from her.
I am not sure what my blogs will be about- probably just a mixture of everything.
So for starters, Lets talk about me :)
I am 22 years old and have three kids. I am pregnant with my fourth child, which is due in January. My first child is 4 years old and is a little boy (Child1), my second child is a little girl who is going to be three in a few weeks (Child2), and my third child another little girl who is 1 (Child3). I am engaged to a wonderful man who is a manager at Cracker Barrel who I will refer to as Mr. Wonderful. The first two kids are not his, but he treats them as if they were. We do not have a date set to get married yet. If he had his way, we would go to the court house and get married today. But, I want to have a real wedding with the kids and our family and friends involved, so for now we are waiting. Who wants to be pregnant and get married? I wouldn't be able to fit in my dream dress and I would definitely not enjoy my honeymoon nearly as much!
I currently am a server and have been for almost 5 years now for the same restaurant. I am hoping to get a better paying job and a more professional one too.
I come from a large family. My parents have been married for 25+ years (not exactly sure of the number of years...does that make me a bad daughter?) and they have 8 children. Yes, I have 7 brothers and sisters. The first 6 kids were girls and the last 2 were boys. We range in ages from 27-14. My parents have 6 grand kids (almost 7) by three of their kids.
Before graduating high school in 2006, I had my first child but that did not stop me from graduating! I then attempted to attend a college about 30 minutes away from home. It was a little more difficult than I expected and after the first semester, I no longer attended. I now wish I would have stayed in college, but things happen differently than you want or expect. So, 4 years later, I have decided to continue my education by attending Kaplan University for an associates degree in medical transcription. Hopefully this will get me out of the restaurant business, so I can make a better life for my children and my fiance.
We currently live with my parents, hoping to save money to buy our own house. After renting for a year, we realized we were throwing away money on something that was just as expensive as owning our own home would be but was not our own home. So, we are back at my parents trying to save money and get our bills paid down.
Okay, that is a little background about myself. Now it is time to eat home made lasanga- and yes my mom makes the BEST lasagna!!
