All About Adelyn

Since this is a new blog, I would like to take the opportunity to introduce myself.





My name is Adelyn Piper. I am 34 years old and I live in Louisiana with my husband and four children. My family is the most important thing in my life. My kids are funny and smart and extremely quirky; they make me laugh, drive me crazy, and they keep me on my toes but I wouldn't have it any other way. My husband has managed to put up with me for seventeen years and believe me when I say that is an accomplishment worthy of recognition.





I am a bit of a spaz. I often trip over flat surfaces and fall over for no reason at all. Holding a simple conversation with me can be difficult—I have the attention span of a flea and I can tune people out without even trying. I am very loud and opinionated and I often say things I shouldn't and I will argue with a brick wall when I think I'm right. I laugh at inappropriate times and have a sense of humor that quite often gets me into trouble. I also cuss, a lot and even though I'm well over 18, my mother threatens to wash my mouth out with soap (and honestly, most of the time I believe she would).





Now that I have confessed to my sins, I guess I should tell you some of my more redeeming qualities. I am an avid reader and I collect (okay, hoard) books the way most women collect shoes and fashion magazines. I love music and listen to most genres. I do play guitar and piano and attempt to sing on occasion. I am a huge sports fan and I love fantasy football. I am also Disney addict and I cry at some point during every animated film. I love to cook. Oh yeah, and then there is this writing thing I do…
