I was born and raised in southern California, but spent most of my life in Illinois. I spent 8 years in Arkansas, and have been in Texas now for almost 7 years. The Lord has allowed me to publish numerous Bible Study (Interactive Journal-style) books which are available through Amazon. (More will be coming soon, Bible Studies, Devotions, Short Stories, etc.)
I have two WONDERFUL children, Jehremy Alan and Mariah Anne, by birth, and ‘adopted’ daughters Tosha, Abby, Angelina and Sonia as well as adopted sons Travis, Brian and Jonathan – God is SO awesome in His blessings!
I have also been blessed with numerous grandchildren . . . Kirsten, Austin, Tyler, Diante (in Heaven) and TaMyra, by blood.
And, my ‘adopted’ grandchildren are Kacie, Cody, Gracie, Dixie Lane (in Heaven), Hunter, Giovani, Chloe and Elizabeth.
I love God’s blessings!
One of those blessings happen to be my husband, Francisco (Frank). I am SO grateful to God for His bringing us together.
