Who am I

I'm a mother of five amazing children and a grandma to eight adorable grandchildren. There is a 15 years span between my oldest and Max who is 24.
My life has been filled with speech
and occupational therapies, Special Olympics Arizona Swim Team practices. Max keeps me on my toes.
Never has there been a dull moment with having a special needs child. To be honest, it's made me learn to value what is important in life.

The things I like to do are, yoga, walking, gardening, writing, reading, cooking for my family and spending time with my family.

Max's interest are Baseball (especially the Diamondback's) swimming, eating homemade salsa, gardening, working with his chickens and Special Olympics. He also loves swimming with MAC (Mesa Aquatics Masters every morning. He has served a two year service mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. He is now enrolled in College and wants to be an accountant. Max does not like to eat anything that is green.
