Today I’m taking a totally different turn and posting a photo that is close to my heart…my family. This wonderful group of folks is why I get up every day and live my life to its fullest. They are the ones that fuel my passion to be the best I can be…as a mother…as a wife…as an entrepreneur…and as a friend. Pictured below is my two children, my husband and my in-laws. Let me tell you a little fact about each one.
Pictured Front Left: Pat McManama, my mother-in-law. She’s the sweetest woman I know and will do anything for you. She also has the patience of a saint if you ask me. She raised three boys of her own!
Pictured Front Right: Joe McManama, my father-in-law. He’s a wonderful man who always has good advice to share about life and work.
Pictured Back Left: This is my son, Dakotah McManama. Hes’ my self-sufficient, laid-back child. Well, he’s not a child anymore. More like 21. He’s my comedian who keeps me laughing everyday. He’s also an example of reliability and he has a great work ethic.
Pictured Back Middle: This is my daughter, Chloe McManama. This is my independent and always on-the-go child who is so much like me. Super-smart, talented and, well, yes, she’s very pretty too. She can be a sweet and gullible girl, but there are moments she will stand up and defend her ground when she needs to. She also has a great work ethic.
Pictured Back Right: Tom McManama, my husband. This is the man who holds us all together and is the most level-headed of the bunch. Without him, I could not manage all the hats I wear. He’s my best friend and my go-to for when I need support. He’s been there for me through so much. He keeps me laughing with his one-liners that he goes on-and-on with. Trust me, you would have to be there to understand that when he gets started with a topic, he just keeps going and going and going! LOL
There you have it…my little family that I love SO much! 🙂

Beautiful family. The sons are almost always the comedians! Mine is too! Lovely post.
Thank you, Elisa! My daughter tries to be funny, but she’s like me…little to no sense of humor at all! LOL

Lovely family and a beautiful picture. I think we have different senses of humor in our family … my son, like yours, is the comedian, my dd – likes to call herself the silly one, my dh can entertain a crowd of family and friends, while me – I am the snarky one.
You are right, Vidya! I’m kind of the snarky one too when I need to be. LOL
It sounds like your family is all very honorable in their work ethic! That isn’t a way you hear people described very often. What a great way to stand out.
Thank you, Carrie! My kids have been watching my husband and me. Glad we’re doing something right!
Thank you, Carrie!
Who is the tall person who took the picture? Maybe it was you standing on a chair.
Everyone seems happy except Tom who is probably concerned that you take a great picture and don’t fall off of the chair.
Blog on.
Doug, that tall person would be me! I’m the photographer! LOL Don’t mind Tom. He may not smile on the outside, but he’s smiling on the inside. 🙂
What a great looking family, I can see the love in each one of them!
Thank you, Martha! They are my heart! 🙂
