I absolutely love my job. I get to stay home with my baby and observe her growth and changes everyday. I love playing with her and watching her practice old skills and learn new ones.
My husband is a wonderful Christian man. He loves to work on the computer and in his vegetable garden - which means we get lots of fresh veggies. He enjoys trying new and different things. His all time favorite food is spaghetti with sausage.
I love to cook. I started cooking when I got married 5 years ago. Then I could only make spaghetti. My husband encouraged me to try new things and now I love it!
I also try to quilt, but that is a completely different matter.
