I Am I am the daughter of two loving parents. A sister to three brtherrs. The baby in the family. I am the girl that ever got to know her brothers till late in her childhood. Only me and my imaginary friends at home. I am the blue eyed, blonde haired quite little girl. Ribbions and bows all in my hair. The little princess I will always be. I am the daddy's girl. Everything he did I did to. Car shows, basketball, and trips to the hardware store were our bounding times. I am the girl that grew up way to fast. No more Barbie dolls, fake cell phones and no more naps in school. I am the girl whose fake cell phones turned into real ones. Naps in school turned into late night doing homework. I am still the blue eyed, blonde haired girl, now just a little bit bigger and a little bit louder. The cheerleader that turned into the volleyball player. The girl that traded her skirts for spandex. I am the girl that loves her sport. The thrill of keeping the ball alive. I am the pass, set, kill. I am the blue eyed, blonde haired adult.
