Glad you asked! I am a God-fearing woman first. I am married and have been with my soul mate for as long as I want to remember :-)
I am a mother to 4 children, 2 of which are deceased, and step-mother to 4, 2 of which are grown. I am the guardian of my niece (who lost her mother, my sister on April, 15, 2009).
Born on the beautiful (or that's what I say it was) date of February 7th I came into this world with a perfect pitch to the key of whining. That fairly soon turned into singing which I've been doing for once again...as long as I can remember.
I was in a gospel singing group known as The Spirit of Paradise from age 5 to the present. We are now taking a well needed break still grieving the loss of our beloved eldest sister, Kimberly Latrice Briscoe. The group consisted of myself and 2 sisters. I am grateful to have recordings of our ministry because now that is all I have left. There were times that my nieces filled in to help us out, so my sister, Regina and I are contemplating going on...this, indeed takes time.
Some of you may have noticed that I wrote I am married yet my blood sister and I have the same last name! Well...here's the scoop: I married her husband's uncle, which promoted me from baby sis to AUNTIE Jennifer!!!! We used to get such a kick out of that! My sister used to tell me..."it must have REALLY bothered you to have a different last name than me." <---AS IF!!
So, currently I attend Promise Land Christian Community Church where I am voice coordinator for the adult choir, youth and male chorus. I thoroughly enjoy working with the all, especially our youth!
What else? OH....I've decided to return to school and get my degree. I'm SO proud of myself right now!!! I've been so determined that on everything I do I either say or write 'FAILURE IS NOT AN OPTION' to remind myself of that very thing. I was in a car accident last Monday and fell behind in all my classes because I missed last week. I got discouraged for a minute yet choose to pick myself up, dust off...do current work this week as well as catch up from last week. I CAN DO IT....I know I can especially knowing the promises of God: I can do ALL things to Christ who strengthens me!!
This blogging experience was definitely out of site. I admit, I was kind of nervous seeing that I had to do yet ANOTHER power point!!! I am a recovering 'myspace' addict, so I knew how to post a blog....what I did not know was how I was going to do all of this and get it back on oncourse :-0! I would suggest to my fellow classmates to just do your best to make this fun and interesting. I LOVE when I have to write about my self...I believe this is the one subject I am most knowledgeable about and no one can tell me that the information is incorrect! How I do work in this class is I print all the instructions and just follow them step by step to ensure that I have EVERYTHING that was requested of me. Feel free to comment or ask questions...I'll help in any way that I can!
