I am a 58 year old mother of 4, grandmother of 11 (oldest is 10!). I have been married for 30 years.

 I work with special education students. My faves are Asperger kids. Love them! They tell you just exactly what they think so you always know where you stand with them and they never lie to you.

 I love to write, read, craft, and spend time with my beautiful grandbabies. My favorite sport is basketball. I will watch anyone play (from kindergarten to the NBA!). as long as there is a ball and a hoop involved, I'm in.

I am also the legal guardian to my one and only sister who is downs and has schizophrenia. I have learned much from her. She has taught me about strength and bravery in the face of adversity. She is my hero.
