I love to laugh and share ideas and be in the woods. I collect shells and rocks and birds' nests. Love to follow wild animal footprints in the snow and mud and do check out the scat to see what the coyote and fox are eating.I am different things to different souls: daughter; sibling; niece; mother; wife; friend; colleague; fan. My husband and I met in kindergarten but we didn't necessarily like each other back then! :-) I have always loved playing games, athletic and board. I am an amateur musician and artist who loves to garden, ice skate, play soccer and dance! I loved raising and learning from our sons and now I find so much joy in being with my toddler grandson. His body is little but his spirit is huge - giving me hope for our world's future. (Now have a granddaughter!!)
