My name is Traci, I'll be 35 in December '98, and my dh is Mark, age 38.  We were introduced many years ago by a mutual friend and were married on Valentine's Day 1993.  This is a second marriage for both of us.  I brought my three children, from my previous marriage, into our new family.  Mark did not have any children prior to our marriage.  Our older children are:  Lyndsay, 17.5 (April 17, 1981); Tom, 15.5 (April 1, 1983) and Heather, 12.5 (January 12, 1986).  Since we have three teens in the house - we have lots of helpers!      Mark and I wanted children together, however, I'd had my tubes tied years before.  We began to investigate our options and finally decided that I would have tubal reversal surgery.  I had this surgery in July 1997.  I became pregnant with our son Zachary just three months later.  Sadly, Zachary developed a brain tumor and died inutero in the 26th week of pregnancy and was stillborn March 22, 1998.  Despite this great loss, we knew we still wanted to have children together; and were very happy when, just four months after Zachary's death, we were expecting again.  Our second child together is due April 20, 1999.      Some of my hobbies/other interests are: our five dogs (of various breeds) that we adopted from animal rescue, sewing, crochet, reading, decorating, home organization, gardening and tea parties.  Please visit my web site to learn more about me and my interests:  http://geocities.datacellar.net/Heartland/Park/6704/index.html       I hope to have some pictures added to this page soon - so check back again!
