When I was a little girl…

Ever since I was a little girl I enjoyed playing school.  My little sister and I would spend hours in my closet, where my dad had installed my very own blackboard.  I would put on my “teacher glasses” and teacher her numbers, letters, and how to spell.  I was 4, and I dreamed of becoming a teacher.   I thought teachers were the best!  I still carry on that attitude today, not only because I am one.  But I really think that with the work we do, we surely don’t receive enough credit!

About This Teacher

Hello and welcome!  This blog belongs to a mom, teacher, and a student.  When I was in my 20’s I had no clue how to get to where I wanted to be in life.  Having gone through a devastating divorce that included domestic violence so bad it forced me to become homeless with my sons.  I have reinvented myself into who I am today.  My boys are now 9 and 11.  They have gave me what I was missing.  With the skill I gained in becoming their mother, I found my motivation to pursue my dream, teaching.  They were there that day, cheering me on as I walked across the stage and received my Associates degree and a year later, my Bachelor degree in Early Childhood.  Now I teach preschool for the Great Start Readiness Program in Michigan.  I just remarried this summer in Key West FL, to a man that loves me and the boys and is our biggest supporter.  We live in Michigan where we enjoy hiking, biking, yoga, traveling and laughing.
