Hmm, where to start? I was born 29 March, 1989 in Fort Pierce, Florida. But I only lived there for about 3 years. I have moved all over the east coast. I have a sister, Holly and a brother, Nicholas. I have two wonderful parents Paul and Josette. My sister is a year younger than I and my brother is three years younger. My brother died when he was just 29 days old. He died of S.I.D.S. which mean Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. As I am sure you know, it was very heard on my family and I. So, my parents decided that we were going to "run away" from our problems and the hurt, so we moved to Missouri. My aunt (mom's best friend) had some family out there that we knew and there was a job for my dad and a place for us to live. The worst thing of all for us at this time of crisis is that none of us were Christians. We found out, not to long after the move, that it was physically impossible for us to run away from the hurt. So, we made the long move back to Florida. We lived in Florida for just a couple months and then decided to move to Ohio where my mom's family lived. In Ohio I became close to all of my mom's family, especially my grandmother. In Ohio I started going to church with a friend in first grade. Not to long after the rest of my family, mom, dad and sister, followed. My dad was the first to become a Christian and then shortly after I did and my mom and sister did after that. We lived in Ohio until I ended second grade. We went vacationing in North Carolina, where one of my mom's brother's lived at the time. While down there we just fell in love with it. It was amazingly beautiful, so peaceful and serene! We decided that it would be wise for us to move there. At the time my dad was gone a lot because of work. He is a carpenter and he was gone a lot because of the overtime. When his employer asked him to go to Texas for a little while he realized that he needed to be home more. In North Carolina, that could happen. In the late summer/early fall of that year we moved, along with my Grandma, down to a little town called Spruce Pine. We joined a church there and started adjusting to the change. It was especially hard for me because I had made friends in Ohio and I had to leave them behind. We lived in Spruce Pine for about a year and then moved yet again to a neighboring town in a different county. I moved to Burnsville where we found a different church and I started 4th grade in a different school. We lived in Burnsville until February of 2000. My dad had went up to Maryland, where we were going to be moving to, and stayed with friends, started a new job, and looked for a new house. So, yet again, we made the transition to a different location. I finished 5th grade out in Maryland and then in September of that year we moved again to Pennsylvania. I lived in Pennsylvania until 2003 when my family and I decided to by a motor home and full time travel. We left Pennsylvania Thanksgiving weekend and started full time traveling. After nine months of being in Virginia, South Carolina, Florida, Mississippi, Louisiana, Tennessee, Ohio, and back to Maryland. After we returned back to Maryland we decided full time RVing wasn't for us right now. So, we moved back to Pennsylvania, bought a house and settled...finally! We lived in that house from July of 2005 to October 2006. In October 2006 we moved...again! My dad took a different job at an environmental education camp on the upper Chesapeake Bay called NorthBay. It is in a tiny little "one horse" town called North East. It is about and hour from Baltimore and Philadelphia, an hour and a half from Washington, D.C. and four hours from New York city. We live on-site and after looking around for a while, have found a wonderful church called Grace Community Church (www.gccelkton.com).
