Hi Y'all,
My name is Leah long time lurker, some time poster here at Disboards.My first trip to Disney was when I was ten. Worst trip Ever. Just think freak cold spell, no long pants or shirts. Anyway, more about me. I am 35, I think and am a single parent. So I am a SSAWM (Single Stay at Work Mom)
. I am an Student Services Assistant in Philly. Basically I help out in the school where needed. I generally work with 7th graders.
They're not that bad once you get to know them. I love and hate working at a school. Love the summers off and hate when kids choose not to learn because it's boring and not all that important. 
I am an avid beginner scrapbooker, photography nut, book lover, social nerd and coupon lover. In fact, I'm cheap. You know the rhyme, "make a dollar out of 15 cents." Well that's me, trying to make a dollar out of 15 cents. If I could squeeze a penny into 4 and use each quarter I would.
So here's me. This was at Wildwod last year, on my favorite ride, the Ferris Wheel. You won't see many pictures of me because I'm usually the one holding the camera.
Next up is my baby boy. Devin 14 but will be 15 when we go next year. General Mama's boy, football and basketball lover. Eats like a horse. He's caring and funny but sometimes selfish and idiotic. Most people call him Dev, or DevyDev
Next up is Mom. She's 55, I think, and works as a Social Worker at the Phila Prison Sytem. She's great. Somewhat a best friend, I'm still scared of her, flashbacks from my teenage years when she showed me how grown I really was.
She has custody of my niece and oldest nephew because my middle sister can't take care of them. So first up is Albert. He's 12, he'll be 13 when we go. He was recently diagnosed with Aspergers. Which kinda made sense after all the things he's done. He is a computer genius and an avid cyclist. He'll be entering 8th grade in September.
And my sugah momma. Adrianna. She is 5 but will be 6 when we go. She was tentatively diagnosed with Aspergers but it can't really be confirmed because she is so young and a girl. She can be as sweet as sugar or as mean as a rattlesnake. She is a hater of all princesses except Tiana. The first time we went she called the princesses posers. But when Tiana came out in the movies she said, "She is a real princess, she looks like me." Thank you Disney
I started a PTR last year when I hoped we were going but stopped because the whole trip thing fell apart--bad. I think I'm jinxed whenever I think about writing about our plans to the World it goes wrong. I also think because I promised my mom that I would finish the scrapbook before we go again. Our last trip-2007, scrapbook still not done. Almost, but not done.
In my next post I'll introduce the rest of the fam and the plans.

Also Hazel, Devin's Gmom is coming too
