I want to thank Amy from Where Seconds Count for awarding me the Versatile Blogger Award!

WOW!   Seven facts about me, hmmmm....

1. I am a third generation teacher.  Mom taught a number of elementary grades and finally became a media specialist.  Her father was a high school math teacher and the head football and basketball coach.

2. I was a foreign exchange student to Norway.  After 20 years I only remember how to ask the dog if he wants to "go out" in Norwegian.

3. I LOVE working with diverse populations in high poverty areas.  I feel like I am actually teaching something new everyday.

4. I have been married in Las Vegas in the middle of the night on Leap Year day.  No foolin' - February 29, 1992.  Too bad it didn't last!

5. My middle daughter and I go out for Burnt Ends every Wednesday night, while her little sister is at youth group.  Please don't tell her! (I do take the littlest out for Taco Tuesday while her sister is at Children's Lit.  SHHHH!!!!)

6. I would do anything for my fur baby, Watson.  Including driving through "snowpocalypse" to get him medical treatment.  Of course he got sick when the entire Kansas City area was literally shut down.  It took us over an hour to drive 8 miles.  He got a doggie IV (Which was administered at home, I couldn't leave him there unattended.)

7. I love to cook and bake.  My girls know I will make them a home cooked dinner every night - minus that Tuesday/Wednesday confession.  They grade papers for me and I cook!  I love it! 

I had a terrible time finding 15 new blogs to give this award.  I am going to search and award it as I find deserving awardees.  (I hope that is ok.)
