It's Okay Sometimes...but not Always!: Learning about Moderation for LDS Children (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781974505036)

I was born on April 25, 1961, in Bingham Memorial Hospital in Blackfoot Idaho to the parents of Linda and David Kinney. I was so excited for life that I arrived a month early and weighed in at only 4 pounds and 11 ounces. I was raised in Pocatello, Idaho where I graduated from Pocatello High in 1979. I then attended Ricks College in Rexburg Idaho where I met my husband Randy Paries. We were married on August 8, 1980, in the Salt Lake Temple. We then resided in Calgary, Alberta Canada. The following July our first son Kyle was born, followed two years later by Kameron. Three years later our third son, Kory joined the family. Fifteen months after Kory's arrival a fourth son, Kristopher was born to complete our family. We lived in Calgary from 1980 through 1990. In July of 1990, we moved our little family to Huntsville, Alabama. I am an active member of The Church Of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I love dill pickles and the color green. I have a Yorkie named Oliver. My favorite things in life are; my faith, all the men in my life, movies, and reading. The greatest tragedy in my life has defined who I am and the purpose for my novel and website, the death of my son Kory on December 23, 2002. My son's death is the topic of my first novel, titled: "Kory." I have written and illustrated books for my boys all my married life. I love children's literature. I love to read it and write it. I hope that parents and children will enjoy my books together. I am working on getting my degree at BYU Idaho online to help enhance my love of writing and illustrating.
