Only Prettier;

"This life is what you make it. Not matter what, you're going to mess up sometimes, it's a universal truth. But the good part is you get to decide how you're going to mess it up. Girls will be your friends - they'll act like it anyway. But just remember, some come, somg go. The ones that stay with you through everything - they're your true best friends. Don't let go of them. Also remember, sisters make the best friends in the world. As for lovers, well, they'll come and go too. And babe, I hate to say it, most of them - actually pretty much all of them are going to break your heart, but you can't give up becuase if you give up, you'll never find your soul mate. You'll never find that half who makes you whole and that goes for everything. Just because you fail once, doesn't mean you're gonna fail at everything. Keep trying, hold on, and always, always, always believe in yourself, because if you don't, then who will, sweetie? So keep your head high, keep your chin up, and most importantly, keep smiling, because life's a beautiful thing and there's so much to smile about."
-Marilyn Monroe

i'm a southern girl, with a southern accent to top it off. i'm not perfect by no means. around 4:30p.m on Friday, November 16, 1990 i made my appearance in this world as erica kay warren. every year after that has only been a blessing. my parents were both young, whatever their situation was doesn't really matter because the Lord blessed them with me & honestly, that's all that matters. i lived with each of them for just a little while, then went to live with my half-sister & her adopted parents until i was 12. then went to be with my grandma .. she blunted stated that she didn't want me so i was put in foster care, and was later adopted by my foster mom & became erica kay vaughn. things there were never perfect, they expected me to be & i let them down, constantly. there are many rumors swarming around, but i just let them fly on, i don't try to fight/argue with anyone about it. my adopted parent kicked me out when i was pregnant and due any day, and if it weren't for my best-friend and her family, i would've been homeless. my best-friends' family has became part of my family. they help me out tremendously. they are my daughters grandparents and aunts ... needless to say, the people you least expect will be the ones that hurt you the most. granted be family, friends, or even strangers .. i've realized that you can't trust anyone, and honestly, there is no point in fighting with anyone. life goes on.  no one will ever understand where i've been or what i've been through, unless they have hands-on experience with everything. everything that i have been through has made me a much stronger person. i thank the Lord everyday for his blessings. i have my faults, just like everyone else. on april 12th, 2010 the Lord blessed me with a beautiful baby girl. read more about her on the Little Miss Sunshine page :) that was my life, in a nutshell- below is more about ME!

i'm a talker! i can talk all the time, and still have a lot of energy. country music makes me super happy! i loove the sunshine, between spring and summer are my favorite times. i'm 100% against abortion, no matter what the situation is .. there are people out there that are dying to have kids, so share the love. anyone that has an abortion should get their tubes tied, nuff said. i love reading little quotes, Marilyn Monroe is definitely my favorite. i love the outdoors. football is my favorite sport. mountain dew is my favorite drink. i bleed orange, go UT! in my opinion, i have a great personality. no matter what is going on & how sad i get .. i still hold my head high & keep on smiling. granted, sometimes i get sour but hey, we all have our days. i rarely ever use the word 'hate' .. that word irritates me. i'm a super positive person, i can't stand negativity or anyone that is. i talk like i'm from the south. i love having a great time. i love life, in general. i can talk to anyone, i'm not sure why .. but i can. the word 'stranger' doesn't exist in my dictionary. i can't stand the noise of a vacuum cleaner or blender, it irritates me. i'm a soft hearted person- i'd give anyone the shirt off my back. growing up i never really had the type of parent that would be positive or try to 'push me' to succeed, so i've had to be my own cheerleader .. which is alright & because of that my main goal is to be the parent that i never had.
