I am Not as Strong as I appear. I enjoy weakness from time to time. We are a homeschooling, special needs family of 7. My 4th son has a Congenital Heart defect, and my oldest has ADHD. We like to find old things and make them new, so we bought a house that was in desperate need of repair, then we doubled the sized of it. This project is well over 9 years long, with still plenty to do, and has pushed my fear of heights over the limit too many times. The best part is I am still alive to talk about it! Some of my passions are my children, and making Jewelry. When life gets stressful (often times stress induced by children!) opening up my bins of beads to create something beautiful that will soon bring joy to someone else is all I need. That and chocolate. I am just hanging on by the seat of my pants. Stick around & let's get to know each other.
