Hola/Hello,
My name is Rebecca and I just turned 42. I live in sunny, West Palm Beach, Florida! I love to go the beach in my free time which I don’t do as much as people might think -that Floridians just hang out at the beach all the time. LOL
I’m blessed though since I know it’s always there when I can get there. It’s where I really feel the physical presence of God b/c the ocean is so big and vast and yet it’s like it was created for just me and it really becomes personal. God and I have had great moments there! I also have 4 beautiful daughters and I really love being with them.
