Hi Everyone! I will begin introducing myself by letting you know that I am usually always going in 3 directions at once. The things that my world revolves around are my husband and 2 children. My children are complete opposite, my son is 12 and my daughter is 3. I work full time as an interior decorator for a company I have been employed with for over 10 years and have also attend school full time for the last year.

I am extremely thankful that my schedule has always been flexible enough to allow me to pick up my son from school and attend all his school functions. This is in part why I am at this transition point in my life. I want to be able to do the same things with my daughter.

     I have always lived in Mobile, AL with the exception of 2 years (age 13-15) which I lived in California. That experience gave my first hand knowledge of social-culture SHOCK! It was the hardest time of my life but reflecting back now it was one of the greatest life experiences. It allowed me to witness and be exposed things that otherwise I would have likely never known existed. What I learned during those years is what makes me want to travel to see so many other places in this world. I want my children to know that other ways of life exist and how other societies function.

    

     I attended USA in 1996-98 and now have returned to finish my degree in Elementary Education. Most people have teachers that leave a life time impression on them and inspire them for future things from adolescent years. It was not until I was a parent that I realized the full impact of what and who teachers are to children.  Children's energy, creativity, and enthusiasm inspire me to find those things within myself. My son is the typical boy that likes his school but not the work. His need to be driven and the past experience of his wonderful caring teachers have given me the drive to pursue my career as an elementary teacher.
