""Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He with make your paths straight." Proverbs 3:5,6"
I'm a 54 yr. old, extremely happily married, Christian woman who is married to the most wonderful, caring, thoughtful, handsome, romantic, Godly man in the world--and he just happens to be my soul-mate! We have two sons (Josh, age 22 & Jon, age 18) that are the greatest boys you'd ever want to meet. In addition to that, we just became Grandparents to the most adorable little GRANDSON in the world. Our son Josh, and his wife, Chrissy, had their first child in May and his name is: Noah Christian Hammond. Dion and I are totally in love with him...and guess what? The feeling is entirely mutual on Noah's part! When little Noah sees his Grandma and especially his Grandpa (That's US!), he starts giggling and smiling and the whole world lights up. He's the most amazing little guy in the whole world and we love him to pieces!
Furtermore, I have a twin sister named Sande that looks just like me (poor thing); another set of twin sisters, Barbara & Beverly; an older sister Carol Lee, that's really cool; two half-brothers, Freddie & Tracy; and my brother, John, that's in Heaven.
Dion (my husband) has an older sister named Donna and two younger brothers named Daren and Drew and his older brother, Dana, is in Heaven.
I've known Dion since he was just a young boy of 10 yrs. old before his brother, Dana, got killed in a tragic car accident. Dana was so special and amazing! He and Dion were very close and it totally changed the course of Dion's entire life to lose Dana like that. It changed my life drastically, too. You see, I was engaged to Dana when he was killed in that car accident--and it was almost the end of my life, too. I loved Dana so much that I didn't really want to live any more when I lost him, but some how I found the strength--I didn't realize it then, but the Lord started watching over me in a special way. When I got older, the Lord would tap on my shoulder again and see if I was ready for a serious conversation and to get to know Him and I'm sure glad that I was! Before that, though, I made a lot of mistakes in my life, but they all lead me to where I am today--and that's why I wouldn't change a thing!
But right then, Dana's (and Dion's) father started watching over me--like I was part of the family--and he kept right on doing that, right on through my getting married to a mean husband and then I divorced him,then I moved to Texas, then to Virginia, then back to New York State--a span of about 25 yrs.--and then I found DION. Who but the Lord would have thought to have put DION AND I together? Well, we're a perfect match! We're soul-mates and I just know that Dana is looking down from Heaven and smiling because he's happy for both of us! Praise God!
Now I write children's books (nothing published yet) and I'm working on my first book right now. It's a Young Adult (YA) Mystery-Crime novel about an 18-year-old girl in search of the birth-mother that was forced to give her up for adoption when her father was murdered and the two of them were threatened. It's going to be great! (I pray) I'm also working on some OTHER novels that I'm REALLY excited about:
One is based on the story of a pair of 16-year-old-twin-girls who are Undercover Detectives that work for their local Police force. This novel is near and dear to my heart (for obvious reasons) and I'm really enjoying working on it. The story itself is exciting, fast-paced and it hopefully, it will keep you on the edge of your seat!
The other story is about a young boy with autism and his older sister. They struggle with the normal day-to-day problems, but worse than that, they have to deal with the ignorance of the people around them. The girl's classmates are mean and call her brother names, and everyone, including teachers, treat the boy as is he were a freak. Hopefully, it will be a heartbreaking, heartwarming, enlightening, poignant story that will have a surprising ending.
AS ALWAYS: Anyone that would like to give me any insight on any of the subjects of my stories, just send a confidential email to: cyndesgotthewritestuff@gmail.com. Be sure to write "G-G Story" in the subject line.
Also, I've written several poems and short-stories for magazines (both fiction and non-fiction). I love to write letters and almost any kind of writing. Right now I'm taking a two-year writing course at the Institute of Children's Literature to help me makesure my writing skills are the best they can be (I've almost completed it!) Furthermore, I'm taking an amazing course called "Holly Lisle's How To Think Sideways Career Survival Course For Writers". It is filled with the most useful information I have ever come across and I'm learning a ton of stuff! I guarantee that by the end of that course, I will have finished my very first novel. (That's my goal, so pray for me, OK?)

***I ALSO LOVE: Jesus, my family, riding on the back of my husband's 1973 Honda CB750 motorcycle, horses, COWS, swimming, photography, walking, PSP, making friends, reading & writing; but nothing compares to spending time alone with my hubby & snuggling with him!
***AND I LOVE: all things "DISNEY!" You know; Bambi, Thumper, Cinderella, and anything or anyone that is in the family of "Disney."
***ANOTHER THING I LOVE: are the little dolls! They are SO pretty; and they're in all hair colors and styles and I just LOVE their pretty little dresses, don't you?

***This nice "About Cynde" chart was made for me by my friend, Erica ("anything_1021"):
I'm a first-time GRANDMOTHER!
Noah was born at 3:15 a.m. on Saturday, 02 May 2009. He weighed 7 lbs. 9 ozs.; he was 20 inches long; and he has a head full of curly, medium-dark brown hair. He's a perfect cross between his beautiful mom and his handsome dad, plus he looks like his grandpa (my husband, Dion), too! He's all Hammond, through and through. We're are so happy; we thank the Lord for blessing us with this beautiful, healthy baby!

Hi Cynde!
That's wonderful your grandson's growing
leaps and bounds...Hehehe...You must enjoy
being a nana...
It's March. Have a wonderful life ahead for
you and your family.
Hugs,
I'm sorry if I made you feel bad. I've never held a grudge over a graphic. I was most likely just telling you what you needed to do.
Thanks for the b-day wishes.
I really think you have me mixed up with someone else. I rarely post finished graphics on anyone's page. And I never get mad at anyone that doesnt thank me or vote on a graphic. I don't check normally.
Cynde dear, I have no idea what your talking about?
I've never been upset with you and I dont know how you would think I was? I went through a few pages of your comments to see where I left you a comment but I didnt see anything. If I somehow made you think I was I'm sorry. There's nothing you can do to make me as angry as you made me sound with your comment.
Sorry for the mix up.
Wishing you a colorful weekend...O_o
