Meet Karla

I love children and pets!!! I have a lot of love to give, but do follow parents rules. I believe in hugs and letting them know that they are loved. I work with brain injury people 3 nights. They are like children in adult body, and they are the best. You realize how wonderful you have it. I am CPR/First Aid trained. The years of experience is raising my son, which is now 41 and my 3 wonderful grandchildren. All boys, even though I wanted to have some little girls to spoil. I always love the way children look @ the world. The world would be so much better if we could only see and live it through a kid. So much laughter, hugs, kisses, smiles, dirty hands and mouths, coming into the house dirty with weeds as flowers, and giggles. I always had my son's friends at my house. Read more I loved it, tho and even miss it to this day. I was always the one they came to talk about things. I knew where my son was and what he was doing along with his friends.
