About

The Blog:

Hello my name is Kristia and I am the author of “Family Back Talk”. The articles I write are my personal thoughts and real life experiences with my family and friends. My reason for sharing them is to bless, encourage, motivate or simply entertain readers like you.

The Author:

I am married to my husband Jimmie and we have two teenage daughters. Jimmie and I met in college-Freshman Week (1987). We started dating two weeks later and the rest is history.

My family keeps me humble. I enjoy walks with my husband, mother/daughter talks, watching the girls perform, listening to the girls play musical instruments, helping with school projects and family outings/vacations. Working part-time around my family’s schedule, allows me to be available for my family fulltime.

My “me” time consists of reading, writing, massages and being in or around water. I also enjoy hanging out with girlfriends at least once a month.

My goal in life is simple. I strive to fulfill my purpose to the best of my ability; taking nothing for granted. Acknowledging that I am a Christian first, everything else is secondary (wife, mother, sister, etc.). I enjoy being blessed; however, I’ve learned that being a blessing is even better. I’m not perfect, nor do I pretend to be. If I could just be real…sometimes it’s not easy being me.

My passion is writing, teaching, and speaking. As a writer, I share my thoughts, creativity and life experiences with those of common interests. Teaching allows me to educate those who are eager to learn; while continuing to learn new things myself. As a motivational speaker, I embrace the opportunity to share positive information to open-minded individuals seeking answers and/or words of encouragement.

Simply put, I’m just me.
