Intro

Tuesday, March 31, 2009
I want to start off by introducing myself so you get a chance to know me before I start pouring my heart out in this blog.

My name is Tyra.  No, not THE Tyra.  My last name is not Banks and I do not have my own television show (yet).  

Now that we have that out of the way, here is who I am.

I was born in Oklahoma but arrived in Texas as quickly as possible.
I have been to Paradise. Heck, I lived in Paradise! 
I made friends and lost friends. I had my heart broken and did some breaking of my own. All too numerous to count.
I loved my school and I loved to run and dance. 
I adored Friday night football and Saturday track meets.
I met the love of my life ~ and he didn't remember me.
I spent a week with strangers in Florida to dance in a Bowl game. Only to spend the majority of my time on the phone with a cherished friend.
I left Paradise for college and danced even more.
I became very ill but great friendships and much love helped me recover quickly.
I followed my heart to College Station and added more hours to my transcript.
I received a proposal on Thanksgiving Day, 1999, in the most perfect place surrounded by sparkling lights.
I said I Do in April 2000 and began the hardest journey of my life.
I survived in Texas until 2002 when I moved to the Evergreen State.
I learned to lean on my partner and trust in God during that three year adventure.
I cherished the mountains and the scenery.
I relocated to North Texas and endured the heartbreak of a miscarriage.
I rejoiced at the sound of my daughter's heartbeat in her first ultrasound.
I experienced the miracle of being a mother.
I am learning to go with the flow and enjoy every day

I look forward to sharing my thoughts with you.  And I can't wait to hear your thoughts and comments.
