Catherine's Story

Hello everyone! I have had an interesting life. I have enjoyed all that has happened to me (even the bad things) because all things in life have taught me something. I feel that if we can learn something from the things we've done that's wonderful. I am happpily married to Sam Kelly. He is the best husband and father any family could ask for. We have 5 beautiful children between us. We have both been previously married. The children are 14, 12, 10, 5, and 3. We are currently living in Marietta Ohio, we've been here for almost a year and a half already. We have lived in Ohio for almost 8 years. My children have taught me more patience and to take life one day at a time. They seem to do something everyday that makes me laugh. They are extremely active and full of life. I currently have 2 that are in sports. My 12 old daughter plays softball and my 5 year old son plays tee ball. That seems to keep us busy. Not that life isn't busy enough with all these kids. My best friend would tell you I'm loud and opinionated, but people who don't know me very well would probably describe me as overly vocal. I am a very honest person and I don't hold things back (personal flaw). If I don't like something I say so. I am overly opinionated and rather blunt. If I feel something needs said I just say it. That has got my in my share of trouble but it's the way I am. I enjoy spending time with my kids playing cards or board games. We love to camp and spend time outdoors. Racing is one of my passions. We often take walks or go on bike rides. If there is...Expand for more
something that can be done outside that we all enjoy we do it. I have a daycare in our home. I feel I am blessed with the fact that I don't have to take my own kids to a sitter. I don't have to miss out on anything they do. If they have a program or a game we just go. I take the extra kids with me if they are here. We enjoy traveling. We try to take the kids somewhere at least once a year. In fact the oldest 2 kids have been to more states then they are old. It's a great feeling to know that we are able to give the opportinity to see the county and for them to learn so much. We may not venture far from home sometimes but the kids seem to enjoy it. As you can tell as long as our kids are happy we are to. I think that's true of all parents though. Our kids are our lives. I wouldn't change one second of being a mom. I love every bit of it. I especially enjoy watching them develop their personalities and sense of self. Right now sometimes it's a bit challenging with a teenager and a pre-teen. They certainly are expressive. They get that from me. My life has taken my many place and I have met lots of people. It has been a blessing. To those of you who remember me, I'm sure I have made some kind of memory with you. For those of you who don't that's cool too. I hope you are all happy and enjoying your lives as much as I am mine. Remember that all things happen for a reason and that we have to take the good with the bad. All things can improve if we want them to. Life is what we make of it. I hope your all making the best of yours.
