Who I Am

I am known as many things, but a few of my favorites are: a Christian, a wife, a mommy, a teacher, an actress, and a  collaborator.

A Teacher
I am a tenured teacher who recently said goodbye to the classroom and hello to being a stay-home mom to my son.   Prior to staying home, I taught 3rd grade science and social studies.  I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Teledramatic Arts and Technology (fancy name for film and theater) with a focus in children’s theater.   I also earned a Master’s of Art in Teaching in Early Elementary Education.

A Wife & Mommy
Although, I returned to teaching after my son’s birth for a year and a half, my husband and I felt the best place for me was at home with our boy.   God has blessed us with the ability to make this desire possible.   So, now my days are filled with silly songs, preschool activities and all the other various mommy tasks.  In hopes to connect and collaborate with other stay home moms, as well as getting my “teaching fix” I began this blog.

A Collaborator
I recently began a new adventure with my friend Amber from The Belly of the Whale.  In August 2010, we launched 2 Teaching Mommies were we provide educational resources. Since we knew that mommies have enough on their plate, we wanted to use the gifts we’ve been given to glorify God. It’s for His glory that 2 Teaching Mommies was started, and it’s our prayer that the plans, lessons, and ideas will make others life a little bit easier.
