About

I am a Stay-At-Home Mom currently residing in the middle of nowhere (aka desert town, California). I was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York (by way of my Jamaican parents) and I have a total of 10 brothers and sisters (some 1/2, some 1/4, 1/8… who’s keeping track?).

I am married to the ever-indecisive, football coach extraordinaire/love of my life Chris. Our relationship pre-marriage was nothing short of a whirlwind. We met in August, started dating in September, were engaged in January and really- the rest is ancient history. We have an amazing baby girl named Cadence who was born in January of 2009 and a 3-year-old Boxer that gets on my freaking nerves almost every second of the day. We love him very much.

I used to have a pretty sweet teaching job. It was the right school and the right grade and (for the most part)all the right people. My husband- not so lucky in his endeavors. Until he found what seemed like the perfect job and it only made sense that we all pack up and move away from Florida to “glamorous” California. It hasn’t been as glamorous as we expected, but we are making the best of it.

Our faith in God is really what helps my husband and I make it through each day. Christ comes first in all that we do. Christ first, family second. That’s our family rule.

Being a Stay-At-Home Mom has probably been the hardest thing that I’ve ever had to do and I’m really just pretending to make it all work. Our daughter runs my life and that’s really all there is to it.

I’m a lover of:
God
staring at my daughter in awe
photography
all TV that is trashy
wine at night (especially before bed)
reading books
aimlessly searching the internet
coffee, soda and anything caffeine related
and these days- talking to myself. (My Dad always said that was the first sign of insanity…)
