5 most important events in my life... (Homework Assignment)

1) When I was three years old my mother was given the diagnosis of cancer. During the seven years that she lived with cancer, my parents divorced. When I was ten years old my mother passed away.
2) My dad married Val when I was in the first grade. This was a huge event in my young life for many reasons, but I think that the biggest adjustment for me was that she had 2 children of her own. I went from being an only child to now the youngest of three girls. My dad and Val divorced when I was a junior in high school (this also was a big/difficult time in my life). Even though they are no longer married, Val and her two girls are a huge part of my life today-- Val is my mom and her girls, Melissa and Angela, are my sisters! They are my family. And I am so blessed to have them in my life.
3) Working at Peak Performance has been an awesome experience. This job has helped me develop into the person that I am today. I was in high school when I started working here as a front desk assistant. Today I am the office manager. My boss has taught me more about health, life, business, and communication than I ever imagined. It has been an honor to work for him. 4) Becoming a Christian when I was 20 years old was probablly the biggest and most important event in my life. This is where everything changed. The path that I was on changed. How I viewed life changed. My friends changed. My job changed-- In August 2005, I was asked to come on staff at my church as Director of Early Childhood Ministries. Everything changed and it was the best thing that every happened to me!!
5) When I was 21 years old, I built my home. This was a huge accomplishment in my life. I have learned so much from the experience of building and owning a home. I love having a place of my own, although it takes a lot of hard work.
