Interests
I enjoy being physically active so I take part in sports with my children. I like to go to the park and play football with my son. Use the park as an obstacle course and see who can complete it thoroughly with the best time. I've always had an interest in music; therefore I write songs and poems with my daughters, as well as teach them choreography. My favorite hobby is cooking and devising new recipes. In my down time, I love to read a well written, thrilling, suspenseful, mystery masterpiece.
