Stephen's Story
Life
Steve Here-Where do we start, it's been a long time since i've had to do a school paper.Divorced six years now,still single and feeling good about it.Have four wonderful children very proud of all of them!Even through they all give you the ride of your life (like that roller coaster that goes up and comes down you know what i mean)My oldest ''Misty" is 26 (grand daughter-Hannah is 6 1st grade now)Watching your oldest daughter
grow up is such an adventure because it's all so new,your just
not sure what's next for either one.When I got divorced she also
throught she took on the role as my mother.That motherly instinct in her .That stopped soon and I do love her for it.
Misty's not married yet but i think it won't be long.She lives in Brentwood with her boyfriend(6YRS)Hannah and all their animals.Dogs,cats etc.They also own their own house.
''James ''is 23 announced
Memorial Day that he asked Amber(girlfriend)to marry him and she said yes .I was very proud of him how he did this at a large family gathering. James does have a full plate:
Marine Reserves(activated once 9 months)Full time job,College
full time(ONLINE)Full time girlfriend (ENOUGH IN ITSELF)Also is buying his own home here in stockton.
Brittany is 16yrs old Blond and beautiful,man do i have a tough time with the boys .I had this same problem with Misty,
I got through it then and i will again(more grey hair)
She's doing great in her 2nd year as a LifeGuard in Danville.
She will be a senior this year.Just one more Prom (I hope)

ins 60% of the time at racquet ball,but i'll make A come back you'll see!!
Jeff has found girls this last year, how funny it is watching this change.
I live in Stockton (don't beleive what you here its a great place as long as you live in the right areas,and stay out of those other areas,like any other big city)The kids and I spend a lot of time together ,we go boating a lot in the delta 5 min from my house.They are getting older so its getting harder to find things we all enjoy.
About me: Married 17yrs -divorced 6 yrs living in stockton 4yrs
I was self employed for 16yrs.Then had to go out and get a real job.I've been their for 7yrs now.I do instore set ups for Auto Parts Stores ,You know all the lookie loo products
air freshners,car wax,car wash etc.I spend a lot of time working in Southern Ca.So I just fly back and forth do not want to live there.
I like to play tennis,racquet ball,bowling,golf ,boating.
I still have a motorcycle in the garage have since the day I turned 15 and one half.Looking to buy a different one now. You
know that 50's thing.
Oh by the way in school, I used to be called ''doughboy'' alot because of my parents doughnut shop.I never did pursue that venture after high school. Like most of use went on to do our own thing.
I keep myself very active with everything that's going on all the time.I enjoy getaways I'm a terrible planner, so I end up more spure of the moment, trying to change that.
To wrap this up I fell very good about everything life has brought my way.Just want to see where this adventure,
is going to take me.For those of you who remember me ,just wanted to say Hi.Just enjoy every day along with the people you can share this journey with.
I guess now its time to be graded on our paper.
Have a great day!!! Steve
