My four children and I enjoy going to nearby lakes to swim, fish and bike. I have two girls; ages 15 and 10 and two boys; ages 12 and 7. My experience with people young and old has stretched throughout my entire life, but I formally began teaching after graduating from Wichita State University. I thought several years of fourth, fifth and sixth grade students as well as special education. My youngest son has Down syndrome so he teaches me much about relating to children with special needs as well. I look forward to meeting you and hearing your story and hope this finds you eager to learn and grow in every way.

["I love music! My family and I are often found singing and dancing in our kitchen","while I make yummy meals from scratch. I personally enjoy words like writing poems and creative stories. You might also find me taking a walk or swimming when I'm not serving up a meal for friends and family. My main goal in life is to please Jesus; He's my best friend besides my husband."]
