My Very First Post

I'm sitting here trying to think of something special to write as my very first post, but of course nothing comes to mind. So I guess I will tell you about me. My name is Merika, and I am a 34 year old single (not my decision) mother of four wonderful but very energentic children. They are Kelli, age 10 (going on 20). She is my only daughter and reminds me of myself way too much. Stephen, age 8 who is my emotional child. As the oldest son, but number two child, he is always in competition with his sister and of course nothing "is fair." Nicholas, age 6 is my wild child. He behaves wonderfully at school, but at home, he is getting into everything and on everybody (siblings) nerves. Ryan, age 4 is still my baby. I'm sorry but he will be the baby forever. Aren't we supposed to treat the baby of the family that way? Ok so he sucks on his finger! He will grow out of it.

So this is my family! Welcome to my world!
