Chasing that pot of gold.

In fourth grade I wrote a story about a Leprechan chasing a pot of gold. It wasn't an assignment, I just did it for "fun". This immediatley sparked the curiosity of my parents and teachers. "She did this on her own...for fun?" They were bewildered that someone my age would take the time to do this especially because it wasn't homework. My teacher submitted the short story to Highlights Magazine. Low and behold, they published it and my story was the "centerfold" with color (if you will). From that moment on every teacher, parent and family member donned me with the future occupation of "author".
Well, here I am 20 years later taking a crack at it. With the constant(nagging)support of my husband I have finally decided to get my creative juices flowing again.
You can expect commentary on my life, the world around us (too serious...yikes!), makeup,music/entertainment, food, my super cute awesome baby and how I am learning to manage my new life as a Mom.
