The Joyful Me

Let me be the joyful me

Filled with life and pep

The one who smiles gleefully

Let me be the joyful me

Showing delight for all to see

With dance in her step

Let me be the joyful me

Filled with life and pep

Connie L. Peters: My husband and I have been married since 1979 and have a daughter and a son who live in Phoenix. I homeschooled both of my kids for most of their school years. For eighteen years, my husband and I were host home providers to people with developmental disabilities. I like to write fiction, poetry, devotions and creative nonfiction (both for children and adults). I was on the board for Southwest Christian Writers for about twenty-five years. I enjoy drawing and painting, church-going, singing, crocheting, reading, hiking, kayaking, watching movies, playing Canasta and Scrabble, and traveling. I have traveled to all fifty states, Puerto Rico and other Caribbean Countries, Canada, Mexico, Scotland, Ireland, Wales, England, France, Germany, Kenya and Peru.. I grew up in western Pennsylvania and have four sisters who are scattered across the nation. We have had reunions every other year since 2000.
