My name is Lydia Middaugh and you can spell it "Lidiya" if you want :) I am 20 years old, my birthday is in November and I was born in the house that I live in, in Buckley Michigan.

I was homeschooled my whole life and graduated high school in 2022 so NMC college was my first introduction to a classroom setting.

I currently work in a restaurant at Crystal Mountain and sometime within the next year, my fiance and I plan to get married so I will be a stay-at-home wife and mother, the Lord willing.

I love music. I play the piano, the guitar, and several of other instruments and sometimes use my camera to film piano videos of me playing and post them to my YouTube channel. I also like taking photos of people and sometimes drawing them.
