Melissa's Story
Well, a lot has happened since high school. I got married at 17 and had three children by the time I was 20. At that point, I was divorced, remarried, and pregnant with my fourth child. This husband came with three children of his own---so at the age of 23, I was the mother of SEVEN.
It stayed this way until age 40.
My oldest daughter, Stephanie was born in February of 1976. My oldest son, Michael was born in November of 1977. My youngest son, Stephen was born in March of 1979 and my youngest daughter, Lisa, was born in February of 1983.
I have two grand-sons by my youngest daughter, Lisa. Their names and ages are: Thomas, born January of 2000 and Nathan, born May of 2001.
I have two grand-daughters by my youngest son, Stephen. Their names and ages are: Ryane, born April 2000 and Summer, born August 2005.
My oldest daughter, Stephanie, also has a step-son, Tommy who is 15 years old.
It seems like I NEVER got out of the kitchen or laundry roo...Expand for more

Anyway, I managed to have a career as a Corporate Trainer for Palm Harbor Homes in Dallas, and as a Legal Secretary in Waco for years.
I now am a Union Dock Foreman in Orlando, Florida, doing tradeshows at the Convention Center and Disney hotels.
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS CAREER.
I operate a forklift, do rigging, run/supervise crews that handle moving freight of up to 10 million pounds in a week.
We basically build a city in a matter of 3-6 days and then tear it down and ship it out in half of that time.
I am single as of now and I own my home in Waco, Texas that my youngest son lives in.
My mom is still with us. She will be 88 years old on June 30th of 2008.
GOD BLESS HER
She still has the neatest handwriting of anyone I know. No quiver at all.
AMAZING
My brother, James, still lives in Corpus. He is the vice-president of American Bank and has two daughters of his own. Laura and Christie. Both of my nieces have graduated from UT at Austin.
