Anyone who knows me, knows that I am in NO WAY a writer. So, if you are expecting perfect spelling and grammer - you are definitely reading the wrong blog. What you can expect is honesty. I will learn as I go.<br />I will write what I feel and what I experience. (funny or not) (happy or sad) (right or wrong) <3<br /><br />I'm guessing you would want to know the driven force behind the title of my blog, "Falling in Love Again...The Rebirth of a Woman". If my mind serves me correctly, I was sitting at the computer one day - daydreaming about my future. I heard a voice. A real voice. It said, falling in love again, the rebirth of a woman. EUREKA! That will be the name of my book. It was that simple. And so, the journey begins.<br /><br />My signature is CharmedByGrace. The name says it all.<br /><br />I'll give you a little background about myself so you can get to know me a little better. My real name is Misty Dawne. Yes, thats Dawn with an e. My mother, Donna Lee, was feeling a bit creative. Hippie you ask? I'm not totally sure, but if she reads this, she may feel the need to explain it in a comment :)<br />I was born on May 15 at Kapiolani Womens and Childrens Hospital in Honolulu, Hawaii. THATS RIGHT - blessed! I come from the most beautiful island chain in the world. (thats JMO) <br />I was born to Donna Lee and Joe Simons. How did we get to Hawaii you ask? My Great Grandparents came to Hawaii from Okinawa, Japan in 1915.<br />I'm going to skip all the inbetween for now or else I could end up writing a book. Although, I just want to throw in there that my Grandmother (Gaga) was attending Sunday School on December 14, 1941. The day Pearl Harbor was bombed. Interesting? I think so!<br />I have a sister, whom I would NOT trade for anything in the world. She is four years younger than me and her name is Malia. I'm going to with-hold her middle name because I am afraid of her. Very afraid. She gave me two beautiful neices - Kalea Belle and Lily Keana (named after my Gaga). She also gave me a wonderfully beautiful (step) neice named Micah.<br />That's it - no more siblings. (that I know of)<br />I will give you a quick rundown on my offspring. I have Shyanne, who has just turned 21 and married to Christopher and they live in Georgia - (AirForce) - waiting to serve in England by the first of the year. Next comes Nai'a - 14 going on *&%^$&%!! Then, there is Christian, my blue-eyed baby boy :) He is 13 years old and refuses to leave the islands. Can you blame him? I can't.<br />I'm also blessed enough to share my life with someone special. His name is Dave. I didn't think that Dave ever exsisted. But he does - and he is here with me. Thank you, Lord.<br /><br />Well, it seems to me that I can't stop writing......which is really weird. So, I'm going to force myself to STOP here and continue cleaning the kitchen and putting away my groceries.<br /><br />My next post will be on what and who gave me the inspiration to blog.<br /><br />...I didn't know I had THIS much to say :)<br /><br />Live, Love and Aloha! until next time~Charmed By Gracehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06237011036815263661noreply@blogger.com0
