Occupation:
Administrative Assistant for a teacher certification program

Comment:
Was married for almost 20 years before we decided we needed to split. I’ve been in Texas since 2007 and found the love of
my life. I have one daughter who moved with me and is married. We have a hobby farm and we have 2 horses, 1 mini Hereford heifer, 10 chickens, 2 cats and 2 dogs. Yes, I’m still animal intensive. I support a team of 7 former teachers who coach new teachers and administrators in gaining their certifications. I won’t make it this year but I hope all those who are traveling and attending have a great time and safe travels.

Been doing construction at Blick’s since graduating high school. Still love what I do! I always say I’d do it for free if someone bought my groceries! 
Been married twice. First marriage gave me Carl and Zach and after we split up she had Dane. By the time he was born dad was out of the picture so I insisted he take my name and raised him as my own.
Next relationship gave me Synimin. When she was 5 months old her mom went to work and never returned so I raised her by myself. Kudos to all the single moms out there. Been there done that and that shit ain’t easy!
Second marriage came with Hannah. Another absent dad so I raised her as my own and then we had Makenzy. After we split up it took a few years of dating to find the right one.
And then soon after the 30 year reunion I met Dawn. She came with Deanna. Her dad I a good guy just lives far away soooo......child number 7. Dawn and I will be together 10 years just a month before our 40th reunion. 10 wonderful years ......never have we had a fight not even much of an argument past where we will park the car. Lol
Zach married Leah.......child #8.........they had Vivian and one on the way!
Makenzy married Jake.......child#9
Synimin married Mike.........child #10.....they had Parker and Trenton!
So now I say I have 10 kids by 7 moms and 7 dads
Just recently bought our dream house in La Grange MO and we are living the dream!
Now we raise German Shepherd Shepherds so we have 5 fuzzy kids!
