About Me
- Leslie
- Jupiter, Florida, United States
- I am 41 years old (as my kids say, "You were born in the SIXTIES??!!") and work as a nurse for Hospice. My life revolves around my family...my husband of 11 years, Patrik, is from Slovakia a real character, a wonderful dad...and also the love of my life...I have 5 glorious children-two grown sons 20 and 23, and 3 gorgeous little girls 6,8, and 10 who take my breath away with the blessings they have brought to my life. All five shine like diamonds tossed against a black velvet sky...they are the meaning of my life. I live in South Florida which is both a blessing and a curse (sunny days and beaches, breathlessly hot and hurricanes). I have fallen into the place in life I never thought I'd have: happily married, the mom of a relatively large family, doing a job I love and living in a city I adore. I don't know what I did to get so lucky, but I'm glad I did it! The only dark spot is missing my dad, who died in 2001. I miss him everyday.
Because of dad, we are...

This is great Leslie. The only addition I have is that the picture of Dad on the trashcan is in Boston. Mom, Pat and Mary Lee came to visit us in NH and we went sightseeing in Boston. We all went to Filene's Basement to shop and dad sat and waited for us on a street corner!
Love you,
Mom
I wondered about that...and I don't know who told me the location of the one in Niagra...someone did! xxoo
Great pictures Leslie. You do your father proud by how you remember him. He was a good man. I have found memories of Punta Gorda and Nashua. I miss him too.
As my parents age I realize more and more how lucky I am to still have both of them in my life. Love and appreciate them when you can. Tell them you love them as often as possible for one day you won't have the opportunity to do so.
Was good to see the whole gang last week. Mom and Dad were so happy to see everyone. Your girls are so precious.
Love Tom
