Introducing . . .

Well, here I go, my first attempt at blogging. If your reading this you have probably already checked out my profile so theres not much to tell about myself. I will give you the family rundown...First theres me: 50 Year old widow (lost my husband in a motorcycle accident in 2000), then theres my oldest daughter Theresa married to James Ackerman, they have Adeline who is 7 months old and so precious. Then we have Kristin married to Luis, they have William who is 22 months and surprises me every day with new words, phrases and adventures and special smooches. They also have Olivia who is almost 7 months (she and Adeline were born 2 1/2 weeks apart). She also is very sweet. And lastly but certainly not least I have Caroline who is 16. She is NOT married, she does NOT have any children but she DOES have a whole huge lifetime before her. She's very bright, very funny and loves the theatre. I am totally in love with my family, they keep me going every day. I relocated about 3 1/2 years ago to Jacksonville, FL from Boston, MA (actually Milton, MA-just south of Boston). Extended family brought me here and I have been fortunate to make some wonderful friends here in Jax. I work at the Universityof North Florida as a Sr Secretary in the College of Education and I love it. My passion is scrapbooking and I have been welcomed into a wonderful, creative community of women. They have become not only my friends but my family as well and I will forever be grateful for that. Please stay tuned for more from the girl from Boston........
