About This Author
I am a 40 year old married mother of two teenage boys. I live for writing, especially romance. Love the happily ever after scenerio. The best thing about writing for me is the ability to lose yourself in your work, and feel as if you've accomplished something great. At the end of the day, that's all that really matters.

Family
It always amazes me how you go through life thinking certain things, only to have a family gathering and watch as skeletons come out of the closet. Oh yeah, my jaw was hanging wide open. It was a shocker to say the least, but it doesn't change the way I feel about the people I learned things about. Just adds to their colorful history. 
We had fun, that's for sure, a lot of laughs, especially with 5 teenagers in one room.
Zak likes kids, it's not something that surprises me, or that I didn't know until last night. But watching him with Rachel, his 5 year old cousin, it suddenly struck me that he is going to be an amazing dad. I couldn't help myself, I even told him so. Nothing like sitting back as a parent and getting to see your kids through newly awakened eyes.
Trip to Lebanon is almost set. Seems everyone has a return ticket, including my parents, except for....ME.  Not really. At this point, the way things have played out trying to get tickets, nothing surprises me anymore. All I know is, that first week of June I will be running my arse off, and will probably sleep the entire flight trying to catch up.
June 1st, my niece turns 16, June 3rd Zak will be 18, June 5th is graduation, followed by the senior party, which I'll be working from 8pm until 3:30am, June 6th, Zak's family graduation party and June 7th, I'm on a plane out of here for TEN weeks. Can you say...DOWN TIME
Danny had no choice but to be yanked out of school one week early. I am still hoping all of his teachers will accommodate him with early final exams, but if not, oh well. Nothing I can do about it. No seats out of the US in June. We have the last three. I swear it's insane. Hope that ash clears up before I fly.
