About Me
- Jenny
- I'm a mom to 3 girls, who I'm crazy about! Most days. I'm married to my High School sweetie and now my daughter is the age I was when I first met him! Unbelieveable! I'm trying harder and harder to make Jesus the complete center of my life, but somehow I keep taking that spot over.
