2. Where were you born?

Illinois

3. What kind of home did you grow up in?

I grew up in a cute little neighborhood on the south side of San Antonio.  All the neighbors were close and watched out for each others children....one reason I was always caught if I even thought about doing something wrong. It was a three bedroom house with two bathrooms.  One for the parents and one for us girls. I shared a room my whole childhood.  Mostly with my little sister Christi.

Yes!!  My parents were the coolest.  They wet boundarys for us and always made the holidays special. We didn't have too much or too little, just enough.

5. When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up?

I wanted to be a missionary who worked in the circus and be one of those flying trapeze artists. I later as a teen wanted to be a writer or a child psychologist. I am a cashier now so I guess I have all these jobs combined in one.
