I am a wife and mother of two lovely children. We have a four year old son and a one year old daughter. We also have a wonderful cat who is ten. I have been married for six years, and I love being a stay at home mum. I love my family, and we see our extended family all the time. I am an only child, and our kids are the only grandkids on either side of the family, so they are lavished with love and attention. Especially since both sets of grandparents live within a five minute drive from our home. It's a really lovely existence, and we know we have been immeasurably blessed. I enjoy history, the study of languages, classic movies, knitting, sewing, and sports. I have had joint disease since I was a young child, so while I can't participate in most sports, I'm able to watch all of them that I choose to. I love Hockey, Baseball, Basketball, Football (I prefer NCAA over NFL, but I like both), Horseback Riding (English), and Soccer. I am a lifelong Montreal Canadiens fan, I also love the Detroit Tigers, and West Ham United. I don't watch riding on TV. I used to do it myself, but, due to my poor health, I can no longer do it. I like watching it during the Summer Olympics though. I love my knitting, but it is hard on my hands, so I'm limited in what I can do. I also have so little time for myself because our home is so hectic, I'm unable to knit as often as I'd like. It calms me down, and helps settle my nerves when they're strained. I'm generally a hopeful person, but I worry at times, and knitting is a release for me. I suffer from severe endometriosis, but I have been fortunate to have avoided infertility thus far. I realize how lucky I am, and what little miracles both of my children are. All in all, life is good, and I attempt to be appreciative of the many blessings, both small and large, that are in my life.
