I am a stay at home mom of 4, and I love it. My husband and I have been together for 16 years and I am very happy. I go to church and volunteer in my kids school. My life is very nice. I like cooking all kinds of things. If it has a lot of color I enjoy it even more. I like for the plate to have several different colors on it. Only my middle daughter is real interested in cooking. She loves to help me. The thing I love most is when my husband decides to get all the kids together and bake cookies (I don't like to bake)but this is a lot of fun and anticipation. Even our youngest gets real excited and knows what is going on. I also love to cook during the holidays because everyone loves to get involved. When I was finally able to make thanksgiving dinner myself and not out of several different boxes from the store. Too many to name. In the beginning there were quite a few. I am happy to say there aren't very many now. One thing I have learned is to figure out what is missing so the next time it turns out great.
