I'm a wife and mom. I love flowers of all kinds, but my passion is for roses. I grow many different kinds of roses and I never tire of their beauty and fragrance. I have 1 giant Maine Coon cat, Maya the dog, 2 kids, 3 beautiful grandchildren and one patient husband! My 2 children are grown and married to fabulous people and I love my expanded family! I am now a new grandmother-- I love this grandmother gig! I love animals, especially the spring farm babies. I am new to photography and my camera so I have a lot to learn. I am really enjoying the Flickr experience.
