My Children

I have two daughters Carrie (20years) and Patricia (4years).

The first thing people ask me when they find out the age difference in my children is "what were you thinking ?". Well, first of all I had Carrie when I was still in high school. Having her young was a struggle but i would not change a minute of it.

I worked full-time and sometimes a part-time job too, while raising Carrie and earning my degree. Things started getting easier when my husband and I started seeing each other when Carrie was 14 years old. We married about 18 months after we started dating.

We had not planned on having any children, see I had cancer in 2001 and the doctors told me that there was a 90% change I would not be able to have any more children. I am so thankful that they were wrong.

In August 2004, I gave birth to Patricia "Tricia". She is the joy of all of our lives. She is 4 now and I think she is going to grow up to be a comedian.
