About Me

I am in my third year of teaching. I teach second grade Valdosta, Georgia. I love my job! I get so giddy when the "light comes on" for my students. I love making a difference in these children's lives. I graduated with my masters degree in Early Childhood Education. I am so glad to be done. However, I plan ..ing back to school this to get my Education Specialist degree. Yeah, I think I could make a career out of being a student. Not really, I hate going to class and doing homework, but I love being a teacher. Ironic, huh? I am married to the best guy in the WHOLE world, whom I absolutely adore! We have been married almost 2 years! He is the love of my life! We have three children...Annabelle, a black lab, Zeke, our cat, and Oki our beagle! Life is usually not dull at our house. My husband plays bass for the BEST band in the whole world, Soular 7. Check them out!

My Interests

I love hanging out with my husband, Mitch, and friends. Game nights are REALLY fun, too! I love shopping and sleeping. Both don't happen enough in my book!!! I love reading, well, reading for fun. I hate reading for class!!!

I'd like to meet:

Old friends that I haven't seen in FOREVER!
