A little more about myself..

Ok.. so I have never been much of a blogger but I'm going to give it a try. Throughout this semester if you follow my blogs you'll probably notice that I tie my family & surroundings into it quite a bit. Here's a little backgraound info: I have a 1yr old daughter, Amaya. I have 8 other siblings- I know, I know- huge family! I can honestly say I'm living LIFE first hand. In June of this past year, my mother (only 46 yrs old) was diagnosed in the end stages of cancer. This came as a shock to all of us seeing as she had always been so healthy. But with a positive mind, here we are more than 1/2 a yr later & she's still here with us when doctors hadn't given us much hope. Although we all have our ups & unfortunate downs, believe me when I say keep a positive mind! It's the key to alot of things in this life!! No matter how devastating the situation, you will get through it! =)
