I was born and raised on a farm in rural Missouri . I was number three of four girls and enjoyed working on the farm.As a child some of my fondest memories are at my grandparents driving the tractor and playing with the animals. I married young and started a family. After having three children I moved to the Springfield area in the late 1980's. I am now enjoying the " empty nest "as the youngest graduated college in May and bought a house.
I have been blessed with three beautiful grandchildren ranging in ages from eight years to six months. I spend as much time with them as possible,nothing warms my heart more than hearing their laughter. I also enjoy gardening, swimming ,traveling and baseball games.
After being laid off from the post office where I worked as a city letter carrier for nearly five years I have now been forced to make some major life changes. This is my first time in a classroom in nearly thirty five years and I am both excited and fearful. I look forward to learning a new way and working past my fear.
