About



I am a mother who is living through the unthinkable, 
the death of a precious child,                                             

my sweet Madeline Rose, or "Madie"



  a few details...

 I've been pregnant eleven times, with seven children I 

have given birth to.







 My greatest joy is my family. 




 I am a musician, 

teacher, painter, gardener, cook, cheerleader, counselor, decorator. I 

sew and design dresses for my daughters... 

We are a little crazy! 
 In fact this picture was taken as we waited for my son Sterling who had forgotten we were shooting family pictures that morning...


 Sterling with his cute wife Kathy who joined our family soon after our family photo was taken...


most recently I am a woman
, with a broken heart that I am trying to repair....
