My mom often says she turned around and I was 8 years old. I always figured things out on my own. I am also the person that either has the answer or can find the answer faster than anyone. The person everyone turns to.
I love watching my sons play sports baseball and basketball, and I just started playing tennis a few years ago and am really enjoying it. I always look forward to our family vacations in the sun, and I also truly enjoy a day alone to just wander.
