This is my first attempt at a blog.  My plan is to give you a little glimpse into my world.  Topics may include: my family, my faith, education, books, recipes, etc.

Since this is the first one, let me tell you a little about myself.  I am a 50+ (ugh that hurts to type) wife to a wonderful husband.  Between the two of us, we have four children and one grandchild, my sweet Chloe.  Chloe will definitely be the topic of many blogs.  We have her quite a bit especially since it’s summer now.  She’ll be staying with us most of the time as my son and his wife have a pool business and I have the next few months off.   I am an Instructional Specialist at a middle school in Texas.  Which leads me to another planned topic – education.  I am a voracious reader and try to stay on top of the latest research in education.  I am currently reading A Whole New Mind by Daniel Pink and joining a Monday night Twitter Chat about the book.  I’m learning “why right-brainers will rule the future.” Interesting stuff…I’ll share another time.

I am a follower of Jesus Christ.  I sing in my church choir and teach middle school Sunday School.  I am far from perfect, but I hope that my love for Christ and others shows in my life and my blog.

Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins.       1 Peter 4:8

All for now – until next time – keep loving each other!
