Kentucky

I was born in 1967 in a small town in North Alabama. I grew up in a large family with six children - five boys, one girl and she was the first born. I was next to the baby. My Father and Mother raised me and my siblings with love. They taught me to be caring, sharing, responsible and most of all - loving. I am grateful for them. Sadly in 2002 my Mother had a stroke, five years later she left our family for a better place....someday I will see her there. My Father still resides in the same, but slightly larger now, town in Alabama.

In 1995 I moved to the city and met a woman who changed my life forever. She is my best friend and wife. We were married in 1997 and have lived happily ever after.

We have two boys - one is seven and one 18 months. I have an older son from my first marriage. He is now married and going to be a father, making me a Grandfather. I am happy for him, but he's making me old quick!

My wife and my three boys are my life. I thank God for them everyday. I'm now back in the country, but not in Alabama....Kentucky where I am living my dream of being an author.
