ABOUT ASHLEY

I am a police girlfriend.

I am a step-mom.

I am a bulldog mom.

I am a child of God.

The four above phrases best describe me and who I am as a person. Even though I am not yet a Clark, "The Clark Project" seems to be the most fitting as I pride myself in supporting my long time boyfriend in the start of his police career. I also take great pride in helping raise my five year old step daughter.

Life has been far from easy in my 25 years but I have found joy within my family, laughs at our goofy bulldog, and strength in my Lord, Jesus Christ.

Some say life is a journey, but I prefer to see everything in my life as an adventure.

Please enjoy, relate, and be inspired as I share our life.
