About Me

Kids: Have young kid(s)

Political Leaning: Conservative

Name: Stephanie

Occupation: stay-at-home mom

Education: Bachelor degree in environmental biology

Relationship Status: Married

Favorite Music: Classic Rock

Favorite Books and Writers: 'Ava Luna' by Isabel Allende, 'Like Water for Chocolate,' and while it pains me to admit this, The "Twilight Saga.'Isabel Allende and Erma Bombeck are my favorite authors.

Words I live by: I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me. Phil 4:13

I can't live without: my family. And time by myself away from said family

I am most proud of: My husband. He works so hard and has accomplished so much in school and his career in a short amount of time. God has smiled on us because of that man.

I am most guilty of: promising myself to hit the gym and by the end of the day, I often have convinced myself that the trips upstairs to put away laundry count as a workout. Fail!

The world would be a better place, if only: Good, deserving people who want children could have them

Interests: I love to paint, read, soak up the sun, and travel. My favorite cities are on opposite coasts with toally different vibes-San Francisco and New York.My kids are my main interest. They drive me completely nuts, but they make my life SO much more fun.

Profession: former scientist turned stay-at-home-mom
