About

Hi!  Thanks for stopping by!  Here's a little bit about me :)

I graduated with a degree in Early Childhood and Elementary Education in 2001.  Since then, I have been teaching Kindergarten and First Graders!  I also received my Masters in Curriculum and Instruction in 2007 from Penn State University.

I have 3 wonderful little boys.  J is 8 and C is 4 and C2 was born on September 15th.  They make sure this mama is completely exhausted at the end of each day, but I wouldn't have it any other way!  Oh, I also have a Mr. too.  He's NOT a teacher! ;)

Random facts about me:
All 3 of my boys were born on the 15th of a month!  J was March 15, and he came 4 weeks early.  C1 was born April 15 and was born 6 days LATE.  C2 came on September 15 and came ON his due date!

I twirled baton and danced for over 20 years.  I also taught it to little ones as young as 3!  (That was back when I had LOTS of energy!)

I LOVE the beach.  One day I hope to have a place there, where I can go for the summer.  I feel like if I don't make it there in the summer, I'm just not quite relaxed to go back to school!

I used to be the ultimate shopper---coupon clipping and all!  I was often "paid" to shop and got tons of things free--you know.  I was crazy!  But, then I had a second kid, and started this adventure.  So, now I just shop the sales and clearances when I get a second to get out!

I started this blog to help me sleep.  hahaha!  My brain does not turn off.  Since starting this adventure with blogging and TPT, I've actually started to sleep better!  (or is it because my then 2 year old FINALLY decided to sleep through the night?!?!!?  He didn't sleep through the night till after 2 YEARS.OLD.  ugh.)  Also, what I type is my own opinions and does not reflect the district I work at. 

Thanks for stopping by!
