I am here for Friends

About Me


I am married to Will and a stay-at-home mom to our daughters Elizabeth and Abby, which is the most rewarding job I've ever had! I taught for 1 1/2 years at Windham Middle School (7th grade math and social studies) before quitting to stay home. My greatest passion in life is learning about and living out my faith, and my second passion is being a good wife and mom, neither of which is easy! But by God's grace, I am growing and learning each day.I graduated from KSC in 2004 with a degree in Mathematics and Secondary Education and got an amazing job teaching in Windham, NH. Will and I got married July 24, 2004. Will is pretty much the most amazing man I've ever met! We moved to Manchvegas and lived on the West Side while I taught and Will worked at Morning Star Christian Bookstore. On July 25 2005 we found out we were expecting our first child - what a wonderful anniversary gift! Elizabeth was born on March 29, 2006. Her little sister Abby joined the family on September 6, 2007 and they have been such a blessing to us. Motherhood is said to be one of the highest callings in life...I believe it! Will and I moved back to Jaffrey (didn't we all see that one coming?!) and we are loving it. Will is now working at the Christian Bookstore here in town.I'm really hoping to catch up with old and new friends here! So if we haven't talked in a long time, or if we have, it doesn't matter. I'd love to hear from you! amazing websites that you should visit TODAY!

I enjoy being a student. I suppose that a lot of people do; it is interesting to learn, to change, to have our perspectives enriched. Even though I am no longer a student of formal educ...

requests, and some big news

First, the big news: Elizabeth started crawling!!!! We are so thankful! According to the doctors at Dartmouth-Hitchcock, it is not so much her spine as it is just a pair of really, really weak ankles....
