Hi kathy,
Welcome to this great forum, and i pray that you also enter this beautiful religion of Islam. Do not hesistate to ask any questions and i'm sure the brothers and sisters here will do their best to answer from the unaldulterated Final Word of God, the Qur'an, and the authentic sunnah (example) of the beloved Messenger, who came after the mighty messengers such as Abraham, Moses and Jesus (peace be upon them all), Muhammad peace be upon him, an example to the whole of mankind, and a mercy sent by Allah to rectify and purify people. May Allah guide you to this path of sincerity.
Take care
Nazir
