I am a second year teacher embarking on an adventure in 5th grade; a wife, daughter, sister, stepmom and woman of God who is so blessed to be doing what I love every.single.day and getting paid to do it! Ha! I am a lover of life, happiness, reading, music, animals, creativity, cooking & eating, baking, and movies. Oh, and most importantly... I do it all with a smile on my face, warmth in my heart and a Diet Coke in hand! I'm so glad you're here, so pick up a Diet Coke and get comfy as we begin the 5th Grade journey together!
