Personal Childhood Web

I have had many people to come in my life and encourage and support me. My mother has always been my biggest fan. My siblings have also been a very good support system. I have had several aunts, my grandmother, and grandfather have encouraged me to get the best education possible. My late husband and children were my support system and encouraged me to go back to college. I try my best to set a good example for my children and siblings because I am the oldest sister.

A story about a child that touched my heart is The Garbage King by Elizabeth Laird.
