Shane and Corey were born in Michigan. But we moved to Florida in 1982. Shane was born in 1972 and Corey was born in 1975, so they are transplanted Floridians. And who would complain about growing up in Florida!! Daytona Beach , what more would a kid want! Daytona has alot to offer the Beach (the Girls), warm weather (the Girls), surfing (the Girls),college spring break (the Girls). Oh and I forgot to meantion the girls on the beach!! The boys are the loves of my life. The poem below sure fits when I think back on them growing up. But to tell to the truth and any mother will agree, ya never stop worrying what they are doing and if they are safe. But that is part of being a Mother. I am proud of my sons, they have grown up to be good men. Well that makes me feel real old referring to my sons as men, because in my heart they still are my babies. They have grown up to be good daddys and they have good hearts. If there was a way to turn back time and to change the course of my life, I think I would have to refuse. I would never take a chance that they would not be in my life.The meaning of the name Shane is God Is Gracious The origin of the name Shane is Irish Form of John or Sean.

For if some peace I do not find, I'm pretty sure I'll lose my mind. I pray I find a little quiet far from the daily family riot. May I lie back not have to think about what they're stuffing down the sink or who they're with or where they're at and what they're doing to the cat. I pray for time all to myself (did something just fall off a shelf!!?). To cuddle in my nice soft bed (Oh no, another goldfish--dead!). Some silent moments for goodness sake (Did I just hear a window break!!?). And that I need not cook or clean-- (well heck, I've got the right to dream!!). Yes, now I lay me down to sleep, I pray my wits about me keep, but as I look around I know-- I must have lost them long ago!!! {Author unknown} This just came in a email and I thought it was another one of those things that reminded me of when the boys were growing up...1. My mother taught me TO APPRECIATE A JOB WELL DONE. "If you're going to kill each other, do it outside. I just finished cleaning." 2. My mother taught me RELIGION. "You better pray that will come out of the carpet." 3. My mother taught me about TIME TRAVEL. "If you don't straighten up,I'm going to knock you into the middle of next week!" 4. My mother taught me LOGIC. "Because I said so, that's why." 5. My mother taught me MORE LOGIC. "If you fall out of that swing and break your neck,you're not going to the store with me." 6. My mother taught me FORESIGHT. "Make sure you wear clean underwear, in case you're in an accident." 7. My mother taught me IRONY. "Keep crying, and I'll give you something to cry about." 8. My mother taught me about the science of OSMOSIS. "Shut your mouth and eat your supper." 9. My mother taught me about CONTORTIONISM. "Will you look at that dirt on the back of your neck!" 10. My mother taught me about STAMINA. "You'll sit there until all that spinach is gone." 11. My mother taught me about WEATHER. "This room of yours looks as if a tornado went through it." 12. My mother taught me about HYPOCRISY. "If I told you once, I've told you a million times. Don't exaggerate!" 13. My mother taught me the CIRCLE OF LIFE. "I brought you into this world, and I can take you out." 14. My mother taught me about BEHAVIOR MODIFICATION. "Stop acting like your father!" 15. My mother taught me about ENVY. "There are millions of less fortunate children in this world who don't have wonderful parents like you do." 16. My mother taught me about ANTICIPATION. "Just wait until we get home." 17. My mother taught me about RECEIVING. "You are going to get it when you get home!" 18. My mother taught me MEDICAL SCIENCE. "If you don't stop crossing your eyes, They are going to freeze that way." 19. My mother taught me ESP. "Put your sweater on; don't you think I know when you are cold?" 20. My mother taught me HUMOR.
