Allow Me to Introduce Myself

There's a little bit about who I am in my profile, but let me share a little more about myself.  After all, it's more fun talking with a friend than a stranger, and I hope that all my readers will become like friends.

So I'm 23 and I just graduated college.  I got a degree in sociology and eventually want to become a counselor, but between now and grad school down the road, I'm looking for a job in the human services field.  My favorite thing in the whole world is curling up with a good book and getting lost in it.  (Usually with a bag of popcorn or chips or something... I'm working on that part!)  I like stereotypically girly things, like shoes and the color purple, and I like some stereotypically guy things too, like video games.  I've been married for five years now... just celebrated an anniversary actually!  So let me introduce you to my husband next.

He's 24, the cutest guy I've ever met.  He graduated college two years ago with a degree in religion, and is working at our local church part time as a volunteer youth pastor so he can get some experience.  He and I actually grew up together from the time I was 8 and he was 9.  We've been best friends ever since his mom started babysitting my little brother and me.  We got married when I was 18 and he was 19, but we make it work!  His name is Lee, and he's the best daddy to our little girl.  So without further ado, I present...

Olivia, the smartest, most beautiful, most mischievous little girl in the whole world.  Obviously I'm biased, but I think she's pretty special.  She's 21 months old, and currently her favorite toy is a rubber snake.  She even sleeps with it some nights!  Her favorite things are dancing, helping mommy do chores, and visiting the farm animals next door, especially "Togg" the sheep.  She amazes me every day with the things she picks up, and I'm lucky to have her in my life.

So that's me and my little family in a nutshell.  Now that you know us a little bit, stay awhile and I'm sure you'll learn more.

Much love,
Marian
