There are several titles one earns in their life, but only a few of mine are dear to my heart.  For me, my most important titles are Mom and Wife.  I married my best friend, Chris, in 2011.  He is the reason I am what I am and the reason for all that I will become.

I have four children, Eldon, Hannah, Emily, and Madeline.  These four inspire me in so many ways.  Eldon is an aspiring illustrator and I hope he illustrates one of my books some day!  Hannah is my diplomat.  She is athletic and smart and will do any thing she sets her mind to.  Emily will be a dancer some day.  She may or may not dance professionally, but she will always dance.  My youngest, Madeline, will probably become a maniacal villain.  She has the laugh and the brains, but for the world's sake, I will try to steer her otherwise ;)  These four keep me on my toes, make me laugh, and keep me honest.  They are my greatest adventures.

Another title I am quite proud of is Teacher.  For 15 years I managed, marketed, and trained at a full service car wash.  I decided to go back to school in my late 20's and have been teaching elementary since 2015.  I have taught 2nd grade and 4K will be my newest adventure.  

The last title I most recently earned is Author.  I have always dreamed of publishing books.  Writing is a true passion of mine and I am excited to finally pursue my dream of being published.  I am driven by the definition of insanity and motivated by the ones I love.  Thank you for visiting my site, you are the reason I do what I do.  Stay creative!
