This is Mommy when she was almost 2.  She was heck on wheels even then!
Do you think we look like her at all?
She still has that Snoopy Doll...something about it being an antique now.

Mommy's claim to fame...hanging out with Eric Perkins from KARE 11 TV.  He was in town to do a stint on our city and Mommy was one of the people he spoke with!

Biker Babe Mommy?  Some day she WILL learn to ride her own!
Being a mom is such a wonderful job, one that is rewarded with something more than money!  There is nothing like holding your child's hand, smelling the sun from their head, or watching them sleep...then time truly belongs to you.

The fun side of Mommy
This picture shows you what the doctor see's in the cases of Idiopathic Chroidal Neovascular Membrane.  Mommy's spot was closer to her central vision, the dot on the right.  The one on the left is the blood vessel that is leaking blood like Mommy's was!
Above is Mommy with Than and Dave from the band Carnival of Sorts

At the right is Mommy with Tim Penny, former Congressman and still political influence

Busy?  Well now, we think our mommy is the definition of that word.   She is involved in many different aspects of our community, yet has found a balance that works for her and put us kids first! 

Mommy is many things in the community, but we think her favorite is her being a police reservist.  She goes through withdrawls on the weekends that she isn't out protecting and serving.  Mom has been involved in many different things, but is trying to scale back.  Her past involvements have included Neighborhood Watch Founder, Community Ed Advisory Council, Depot Restoration Society, Jaycee's, Touism and Visitors Board of Directors, Website Design committee, Sunday School Teacher, and many other things we are sure to forget to mention.  Her most recent accomplishment is becoming vice-chair of Community Ed Council.
Mommy also has a profession...and owns her own business.  She is a cosmetologist by trade.  Every now and then she is out and about taking classes to keep up on the latest trend with that.  We love the samples she brings home.  Recently she was toying with the idea on becoming a Regional Performing Artist with Redken, but that will have to wait until us street urchins are a bit older.
Our mommy has also busted her hind end and got back into shape.  She has found some weird sense of enjoyment in running...and says it is a great way to relieve stress, and to clear her head.  Stress?  Now why would she have stress?
Mommy also finds time to read, write (and one day hopes to be published), loves to take pictures if you couldn't tell, and anything that has to do with us kids.  She says she is still a kid!  If you see mommy out and about, she usually has at least one of us in tow. 

We love our mommy and all she does for us and our community!!!
"We all are afraid of something.  We need to face those fears in order to achieve our goals and bring our dreams to reality.
I am not afraid of falling, only afraid of no one to be there to help me get back up and climb again.  And the only failure I fear is the failure to try.
Dreams are about the only thing we have left that are ours, and no one can take them from us.  It is when we set out to make those dreams a reality is where people differentiate.  It is scary to think of someone else taking that dream from you.  I don't see it as that.  It is mine, and to make it real, I need to share it!"
