Let me break it down for you:
I teach 3, 4, & 5 year olds, and everyday is a new adventure.
My students live in one of the poorest cities in the USA.
I'm a small town girl who loves the city.
I love Spring, Summer, and Fall.
I love the St. Louis Cardinals.
I hate salads so please don't ask me if I would like one.
I have survived a lot of hardship and am stronger because of it.
I am a daughter, sister, friend, and mother.
One day I hope that I figure out why everything has happened, because every one likes to tell me "everything happens for a reason" (which I think is bologna).



"A WOMAN IS OFTEN MEASURED by the things she cannot control. She is measured by the way her body curves or doesn't curve, by where she is flat or straight or round. She is measured by inches and ages and numbers, by all the outside things that don't ever add up to who she is on the inside. And so if a woman is to be measured, let her be measured by the things she can control, by who she is and who she is trying to become. Because every woman knows measurements are only statistics and STATISTICS LIE."



"Life is no straight and easy corridor along which we travel free and unhampered,
but a maze of passages, through which we must seek our way, lost and confused,
now and again checked in a blind alley.

But always, if we have faith, a door will open for us,
not perhaps one that we ourselves would ever have thought of,
but one that will ultimately prove good for us."

-A.J. Cronin




"When the road looks long, it's just a shadow.
When the sky looks dark, it's only the clouds.
And when life gets rough, it's only your troubles getting in the way.
You just need to push your way through
and you will see the road's not that long
and the sky's not that dark
and life is good."

-Anonymous
