About Me

My photo
Well, I am not the most outgoing person you will ever come in contact with, but I like to meet new people and travel to new places. I have great friends, some of which I met thanks to the online "world"! I am a teacher to young children with special needs and have also been a foster parent since 2006. I have a beautiful little boy now; I have had him the longest...he is almost 17 months old.

Snowing Again!


Well, I am home once again due to the SNOW! I think this is our sixth snow day this school year...ugh!

I hope everyone had a very Happy Valentine's Day! I ended up getting the nasty stomach virus that is going around in our family....ugh...it was awful. I am still not quite myself, but I am feeling much better than I did last night! I did get beautiful gifts in the mail from a special friend, though...so my day was not completely ruined! :)

I'm Back! :)

It has been a very long time since I posted to my blog! I use other programs, such as Facebook and MySpace now, so have neglected the blogging world! :) However, I see many familiar "faces" on here that I do not get a chance to have contact with through the other sites. I hope everyone is doing well! My life continues to be busy and never dull! :) I recently started a different teaching position with the same program with which I have been working for the past few years. I am supporting students in their regular education environments when before I had students come to my classroom to receive their special education services. I do miss being in the classroom, but so far with this new position, my paperwork has been much lighter, which is definitely a plus! One other thing that has drastically changed in my life is that I have been doing foster care now for about 14 months. I have had many children in and out of my home, but currently have a little boy that I have had since April of last year. He is 16 months old and is very busy, and his favorite word is "no"! :) My mother watches him during the day, so that I can still work, which is very helpful! I am not sure if I can post pictures of the "little guy" online, but he is a blue-eyed, red-headed cutie! I also finished my Master's Degree over the summer, so right now I am not taking any classes! I may go back to school in the future, but am taking a break for the time being.
Here is one of the pictures that was taken a few months ago when Sally was home visiting. My grandmother turned 90 in December, so we secretly had a collage made for her and then presented it to her for her birthday!
