Nique (dndswordsmith)

Six years married (18 years committed), I am a stay at home mom with 4 children. Their ages range from 24 (college chemistry major), 17 (high school junior), 9 (cyber/homeschool student), 3 (the mini-boss of the house.) I have a wonderful American Terrier Blue Pit named Kushempeng, we call him "Kush."

I love the Lord "God the Father," and I strongly believe in loyalty.

Some of my interests are writing, reading, singing (in the shower), indoor pot planting, scrapbooking, amateur photography, and teaching.

Aspirations: completing my first book and becoming a published author, become an airline pilot, get my BS in Education, become a better wife, mother and friend (always working on me, not to be perfect but to continuously be in an upward and forward motion to get as close to perfect as I can.)

My Motto: "One life to live so make it fabulous, hard work never fails and success tags along." DDS

Virtual Learning via PA Cyber Charter School

The choice for me was simple, either give my power for my child's education to a failing system or take on the challenge to change the direction of education for my family. I am the exception in my neighborhood. I have challenged the system and beat it.

FRIENDS WHO DESTROY!!!

"I'll do it tomorrow," but what if tomorrow never comes. What if the one chance you have to do something is today and you miss it, by putting it aside for another time. "Don't waste today because tomorrow may not be able to wait."

Committing Robbery

He haunts me and I fear him. Fear, worry, stress, and worthlessness are his friends. He isn't here right now but he will return. When he returns, will I be ready?

  Disarming Americans? Who would have known. The government of the United States of America? Say it ain't so, say it ain't so. Our 2nd Amendment Rights are being violated and most Americans don't even know it.
