Hi my name is Sonja and I want to thank you for coming to visit my webpage. This is
my first attempt at this so bear with me. I was born and raised in West Virginia,
and I know what you are thinking, that I am one of those back hills
"Hillbillies". Well, I can assure you that I am not...LOL. I am the
last of three children. Yes, that makes me the baby of the family, and NO I am not
spoiled rotten, just spoiled...LOL. I have been on the net and chatting now for
about 2 years and have enjoyed it (most of the time). My most happiest time on here
is when I met my husband. YES, I met my husband right here on the net and we are so
happy together that it is not funny. We met in a chat room on May 12, 1997 and by
June 13, 1997 we were married. My husband is from Australia
and he gave up alot to come here to be
with me. If that isn't true love then I don't know what is. Everyone wonders
if we are happy or not and all I have to say is that we have been together for almost 2
years and are still doing great, despite the adversities we had to face
from family and friends. One of the most wonderful things to happen to my husband
and I is the birth of our first child together,(my husband has two from a previous
marriage). We were so excited by this pregnancy. I was pregnant before but
lost it and then after only three months, I found out I was pregnant again. My
husband and I are the proud parents of a beautiful baby girl. She was born on
September 29, 1998 and we named her MaryBeth Rochelle. She weighed 7 lbs. and 12
ozs. and was 20 and 1/4 inches long. My how time does fly. She is the apple of our
eye and I have made a page totally dedicated to her
.
This is a new experience for me and I hope that I am the best MOM I can be. A child
is a most magical experience and I am so happy I had this chance to see and feel what it
is like to finally be a Mother. MaryBeth is a daddy's girl and loves her daddy very
much. I will keep you updated on her accomplishments.
I have many interests,
but the one I enjoy the most is interior decorating. I love the Victorian era and
that is the style in which I decorate my home. I also enjoy crafting. I love
to see and make all the beautiful Victorian crafts of yesteryear.
As you can also tell I love and collect Angels. I will be including many more of these beautiful spirits on these pages and they are yours for the taking. I hope you get as much enjoyment out of them as I do. They make me feel at peace and calm, even in the worst of times. Which I have had alot of in the past few months.
I will be including a page dedicated to my friends that I have met here on the net. I want to get their permission first to use their pictures on here. I would want the same done to me if I were in their shoes.....LOL. I have met many wonderful people on here. I have also met some really harsh, hateful, selfish, and just out and out mean people on here too. But, I guess with millions of people on the net you will run into some like that. I just can't understand how people can judge others on lies, rumors, and inuindos. It is so disheartening when someone turns on you and tries to hurt you, not just on the net but in real life too. I guess I expect to much out of people. I was raised to "Do Unto Others as You Would Have Them Do Unto You". I think some people need to write that down and post it where they will see it every morning just to remind themselves. But, the people that we have met in real life (most of them anyway) have been a great support to us. They have stuck with us through thick and thin and I love them dearly. They know who they are. :o)
We are still in West Virginia after a few excursions to other parts of the USA and we intend to stay here for awhile. I will add more here as it happens. I have added some more pages please check them out. I hope you enjoy the pics and I am going to start a page devoted to Victoriana life. So look for those pics soon. Of course, I will be updating this from time to time. I still have more I want to add and I will as time permits it. Please come back and visit my pages as there will be more and more added all the time.
